Table 6.

The kinematic observables used for the interference based categorization and for the final discriminants used in the fits to data to study the HVV and Hgg couplings. For each of the anomalous HVV couplings in Approach 1, we have a dedicated analysis in the VBF and VH channels. In Approach 2, we use one analysis to target all anomalous HVV couplings simultaneously
