abstract
A study of the Higgs boson decaying into bottom quarks ($H \to b\bar{b}$) and charm quarks ($H \to c\bar{c}$) is performed, in the associated production channel of the Higgs boson with a $W$ or $Z$ boson, using $140\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s} = 13\,\mathrm{TeV}$ collected by the ATLAS detector. The individual production of $WH$ and $ZH$ with $H \to b\bar{b}$ is established with observed (expected) significances of $5.3$ ($5.5$) and $4.9$ ($5.6$) standard deviations, respectively. Differential cross-section measurements of the gauge boson transverse momentum within the simplified template cross-section framework are performed in a total of 13 kinematical fiducial regions. The search for the $H \to c\bar{c}$ decay yields an observed (expected) upper limit at 95\% confidence level of $11.5$ ($10.6$) times the Standard Model prediction. The results are also used to set constraints on the charm coupling modifier, resulting in $|\kappa_c| < 4.2$ at 95\% confidence level. Combining the $H \to b\bar{b}$ and $H \to c\bar{c}$ measurements constrains the absolute value of the ratio of Higgs-charm and Higgs-bottom coupling modifiers ($|\kappa_c/\kappa_b|$) to be less than $3.6$ at 95$\% $ confidence level.

The GN2 b-jet tagger is calibrated in 56 fb⁻¹ of 13.6 TeV pp data using dileptonic tt̄ events, yielding data-to-simulation scale factors of 0.9–1.3 with ~1% uncertainty in the best bins.
High-energy amplitude ratios for longitudinal di-boson production approach unity in the SM and dimension-6 SMEFT but not necessarily in HEFT, making the W±_L Z_L to W±_L h cross section ratio a promising discriminator between linear and non-linear electroweak symmetry at the HL-LHC.
In a radiative-seesaw model, one-loop neutrino exchange produces CP-even ZZh anomalous couplings as large as ~10^-3, while CP-odd couplings stay at ~10^-15.
Fiducial cross-section for W+b-jets at 13 TeV measured as 16.6±1.9 pb, consistent with NLO QCD prediction of 16.8±2.3 pb with twice the previous precision.
Three nonlinear interacting dark energy models with a saturation ('sparseness') scale are constrained against late-time cosmological data, showing mild preference for nonzero sparseness but no decisive improvement over ΛCDM.
Updated ATLAS search for HH → bbγγ with 308 fb⁻¹ yields observed μ_HH = 0.9^{+1.4}_{-1.1}, 95% CL limit μ_HH < 3.7, and κ_λ in [-1.6, 6.6].
No excess above Standard Model background is observed; 95% CL limits are set on couplings of the U1 vector leptoquark model for masses 1.5-3.0 TeV.
