The Higgs condensate as a quantum liquid: Comparison with the full Run 2 CMS data

TL;DR

This paper proposes a novel interpretation of the Higgs condensate as a quantum liquid and compares it with full CMS Run 2 data, finding a broad excess consistent with their model.

Contribution

It introduces a new theoretical model of the Higgs condensate as a quantum liquid and compares it with experimental data from the LHC.

Findings

Observed a broad excess in the 600-800 GeV mass range in CMS data.

The proposed model aligns reasonably well with the experimental excess.

The analysis suggests potential new physics beyond the Standard Model.

Abstract

We compare our proposal for an additional heavy Standard Model Higgs boson to the available full data set collected by the CMS detector during Run 2 at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. The CMS Collaboration performed a search for a high mass Higgs boson decaying into a pair of W bosons in the dileptonic channel. Our analysis of the CMS data indicated the presence of a broad excess in the mass range 600 GeV - 800 GeV with respect to the expected Standard Model background with a rather significative statistical significance. We found that our theoretical proposal is in reasonable agreement with the experimental observations.
