Fig. 2: The agreement with the SM predictions for production modes and decay channels.
From: A portrait of the Higgs boson by the CMS experiment ten years after the discovery
Signal-strength parameters extracted for various production modes μi, assuming \({ {\mathcal B} }^{f}={({ {\mathcal B} }^{f})}_{{\rm{SM}}}\) (left), and decay channels μf, assuming σi = (σi)SM (right). The thick and thin black lines indicate the 1-s.d. and 2-s.d. confidence intervals, respectively, with the systematic (syst) and statistical (stat) components of the 1-s.d. interval indicated by the red and blue bands, respectively. The vertical dashed line at unity represents the values of μi and μf in the SM. The covariance matrices of the fitted signal-strength parameters are shown in Extended Data Fig. 5. The P values with respect to the SM prediction are 3.1% and 30.1% for the left plot and the right plot, respectively. The P value corresponds to the probability that a result deviates as much, or more, from the SM prediction as the observed one.
