Method provides a new way to measure Higgs interactions.

Potential for improved precision in Higgs coupling measurements.

Abstract

We show that the Higgs boson's effective couplings to gluons and to weak vector bosons can be extracted simultaneously from an analysis of Higgs plus dijet events by studying the dependence of the observed cross-section upon a third-jet veto.
