The observation of the Higgs boson in 2012 marked a significant milestone in particle physics. Following its discovery, the Large Hadron Collider experiments have focused on an extensive characterisation of this scalar particle. However, key questions remain, such as the origin of the electroweak scale and phase transition in the early Universe. This project seeks to address a crucial gap in our understanding of the Higgs boson: a comprehensive study of the Higgs boson production in association with a photon, focusing on the diphoton decay channel, could potentially point to new physics beyond the Standard Model. This process has not yet been observed due to its low cross-section and the…
