Search for an Exotic Decay of the Higgs Boson to a Pair of Light Pseudoscalars in the Final State of Two Muons and Two τ Leptons in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s = 13 TeV

Search for an Exotic Decay of the Higgs Boson to a Pair of Light Pseudoscalars in the Final State of Two Muons and Two τ Leptons in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s = 13 TeV

A search for exotic Higgs boson decays to light pseudoscalars in the final state of two muons and two τ leptons is performed using proton-proton collision data recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb...
