"Spinning the Higgs"


Abstract:
I will present an analysis of the 2011 LHC Higgs data in the context  of 
an effective low-energy theory of the Higgs boson. The focus will be on 
the 4-leptons and diphoton channels at the LHC and the  b-bar channel at 
the Tevatron. Combining the available data in these channels, one can 
  derive constraints on the effective theory parameters. These 
constraints can then be mapped several simplified scenarios  of natural 
new physics  capturing the Higgs physics of simple  supersymmetric and 
composite Higgs models.  I will also discuss the phenomenological 
  consequences of the assumption that the Higgs couplings to the 
electroweak gauge bosons is larger than in the Standard Model. The 
latter may be hinted at by the CMS diphoton channel excess in the dijet 
category, and by the Tevatron excess in the W/Z+H -> b-bar channel.
