Higgs Boson Decays into a Pair of Bottom Quarks Observation with the ATLAS Detector and Machine Learning Applications

This thesis presents the analysis that led to the observation of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson decay into pairs of bottom quarks. The analysis, based on a multivariate strategy, exploits the production of a Higgs boson associated with a vector boson. The analysis was performed on a dataset cor...
