Description

The Higgs sector is a prominent candidate for providing additional sources of CP violation beyond the SM. The cleanest way to constrain the amount of CP violation is by measuring CP-odd observables. However, most of the current analyses do not take into account the full kinematics of the processes. We present an approach in which a CP-odd observable can be constructed from the output of a neural network that has been trained on recognizing the CP structure of BSM events. Focusing on the CP structure of the Higgs-gluon coupling, we compare the sensitivity of this approach to a more traditional CP-odd observable.
