abstract

We show how the $W$ boson polarization in the process of associated $W^{\pm}H$ production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can be used to constrain anomalous $WWH$ couplings. We first calculate the spin density matrix for the $W$ to linear order in the anomalous couplings, which are assumed to be small. We then evaluate angular asymmetries in the decay distributions of leptons produced in the decay of the $W$ and show how they can be used to measure the individual elements of the polarization tensor. We estimate the limits that can be placed on the anomalous $WWH$ couplings at a future run of the LHC.

  1. Proposed measurement of longitudinally polarised vector bosons in $WH$ and $ZH$ production at Hadron colliders

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Simulation-based projections show longitudinally polarised W bosons in WH production could be measured at 5-sigma significance with 300 fb^-1 at the LHC.
