Three mutually exclusive channels are considered: two all-hadronic channels and a photon-associated channel. Results are reported from the analysis of up to 30.6 fb(-1) of pp data at root s = 13 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measured signal strength relative to the Standard Model prediction from the combined analysis is 2.5(-1.3)(+1.4) for inclusive Higgs boson production and 3.0(-1.6)(+1.7) for vector-boson fusion production only.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPARTON DISTRIBUTIONSPROGRAMSearch for Higgs bosons produced via vector-boson fusion and decaying into bottom quark pairs in root s=13 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detectorArticle2-s2.0-8505479043010.1103/PhysRevD.98.052003Q1WOS:000444208700002
