dc.description.abstract | The first evidence for the Higgs boson decay to a Z boson and a photon is presented, with a statistical significance of 3.4 standard deviations. The result is derived from a combined analysis of the searches performed by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations with proton -proton collision datasets collected at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) from 2015 to 2018. These correspond to integrated luminosities of around 140 fb-1 for each experiment, at a center -of -mass energy of 13 TeV. The measured signal yield is 2.2 +/- 0.7 times the standard model prediction, and agrees with the theoretical expectation within 1.9 standard deviations. | |

The crucial computing support from all WLCG partners is acknowl- edged gratefully, in particular from CERN, the ATLAS Tier -1 facilities at TRIUMF (Canada), NDGF (Denmark, Norway, Sweden), CC-IN2P3 (France), KIT/GridKA (Germany), INFN-CNAF (Italy), NL-T1 (Netherlands), PIC (Spain), ASGC (Taiwan), RAL (UK) and BNL (USA), the Tier -2 facilities worldwide, and large non- WLCG resource providers. Major contributors of comput- ing resources are listed in Ref. [55]. CMS congratulates our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for their contributions to the success of the CMS effort. In addition, we gratefully acknowledge the computing centers and personnel of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid and other centers for delivering so effectively the computing infrastructure essential to our analyses. r Finally, we acknowledge the enduring support for the construction and operation of the LHC, the CMS detector, and the supporting computing infrastructure pro- vided by the following funding agencies: SC (Armenia), BMBWF and FWF (Austria); FNRS and FWO (Belgium); CNPq, CAPES, FAPERJ, FAPERGS, and FAPESP (Brazil); MES and BNSF (Bulgaria); CERN; CAS, FRFCU, MoST, and NSFC (China); Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnologia e Innovacion (MINCIENCIAS) (Colombia); MSES and CSF (Croatia); RIF (Cyprus); SENESCYT (Ecuador); MoER, ERC PUT, and ERDF (Estonia); Academy of Finland, MEC, and HIP (Finland); CEA and CNRS/IN2P3 (France); BMBF, DFG, and HGF (Germany); General Secretariat for Research and Innovation (GSRI) (Greece); NKFIH (Hungary); DAE and DST (India); IPM (Iran); SFI (Ireland); INFN (Italy); MSIP and NRF (Republic of Korea); MES (Latvia); LAS (Lithuania); MOE and UM (Malaysia); BUAP, CINVESTAV, CONACYT, LNS, SEP, and UASLP-FAI (Mexico); MOS (Montenegro); MBIE (New Zealand); PAEC (Pakistan); MES and NSC (Poland); FCT (Portugal); Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development (MESTD) (Serbia); MCIN/AEI and PCTI (Spain); MOSTR (Sri Lanka); Swiss Funding Agencies (Switzerland); MST (Taipei); MHESI and NSTDA (Thailand); TUBITAK and TENMAK (Turkey); NASU (Ukraine); STFC (United Kingdom); DOE and NSF (USA).r the construction and operation of the LHC, the CMS detector, and the supporting computing infrastructure pro-vided by the following funding agencies: SC (Armenia) , BMBWF and FWF (Austria) ; FNRS and FWO (Belgium) ; CNPq, CAPES, FAPERJ, FAPERGS, and FAPESP (Brazil) ; MES and BNSF (Bulgaria) ; CERN; CAS, FRFCU, MoST, and NSFC (China) ; Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnologia e Innovacion (MINCIENCIAS) (Colombia) ; MSES and CSF (Croatia) ; RIF (Cyprus) ; SENESCYT (Ecuador) ; MoER, ERC PUT, and ERDF (Estonia) ; Academy of Finland, MEC, and HIP (Finland) ; CEA and CNRS/IN2P3 (France) ; BMBF, DFG, and HGF (Germany) ; General Secretariat for Research and Innovation (GSRI) (Greece) ; NKFIH (Hungary) ; DAE and DST (India) ; IPM (Iran) ; SFI (Ireland) ; INFN (Italy) ; MSIP and NRF (Republic of Korea) ; MES (Latvia) ; LAS (Lithuania) ; MOE and UM (Malaysia) ; BUAP, CINVESTAV, CONACYT, LNS, SEP, and UASLP-FAI (Mexico) ; MOS (Montenegro) ; MBIE (New Zealand) ; PAEC (Pakistan) ; MES and NSC (Poland) ; FCT (Portugal) ; Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development (MESTD) (Serbia) ; MCIN/AEI and PCTI (Spain) ; MOSTR (Sri Lanka) ; Swiss Funding Agencies (Switzerland) ; MST (Taipei) ; MHESI and NSTDA (Thailand) ; TUBITAK and TENMAK (Turkey) ; NASU (Ukraine) ; STFC (United Kingdom) ; DOE and NSF (USA) . | |
