Search for the Anomalous KVV Coupling of the Higgs Boson and Vector Bosons Via Vector Boson Scattering

An analysis attempting to place constraints on the gauge-quartic coupling, KVV, is presented. This analysis targets the process pp->HW^{+/-}W^{-/+} where both W bosons decay leptonically to a lepton (e, mu) and a neutrino and the Higgs boson decays to bb(bar). The full Run 2 proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC is used, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137fb^-1 at center of mass energy of 13TeV. No excess of data events over the expected background has been observed. The observed (expected) limit of KVV is set to [-1.92, 3.92] ([-1.92, 3.92]) at 95\% confidence interval.
