The observation of the signal in the ${{\mathit \gamma}}{{\mathit \gamma}}$ final state rules out the possibility that the discovered particle has spin 1, as a consequence of the Landau-Yang theorem. This argument relies on the assumptions that the decaying particle is an on-shell resonance and that the decay products are indeed two photons rather than two pairs of boosted photons, which each could in principle be misidentified as a single photon.

Concerning distinguishing the spin 0 hypothesis from a spin 2 hypothesis, some care has to be taken in modelling the latter in order to ensure that the discriminating power is actually based on the spin properties rather than on unphysical behavior that may affect the model of the spin 2 state.

Under the assumption that the observed signal consists of a single state rather than an overlap of more than one resonance, it is sufficient to discriminate between distinct hypotheses in the spin analyses. On the other hand, the determination of the $\mathit CP$ properties is in general much more difficult since in principle the observed state could consist of any admixture of $\mathit CP$-even and $\mathit CP$-odd components. As a first step, the compatibility of the data with distinct hypotheses of pure $\mathit CP$-even and pure $\mathit CP$-odd states with different spin assignments has been investigated. In order to treat the case of a possible mixing of different $\mathit CP$ states, certain cross section ratios are considered. Those cross section ratios need to be distinguished from the amount of mixing between a $\mathit CP$-even and a $\mathit CP$-odd state, as the cross section ratios depend in addition also on the coupling strengths of the $\mathit CP$-even and $\mathit CP$-odd components to the involved particles. A small relative coupling implies a small sensitivity of the corresponding cross section ratio to effects of $\mathit CP$ mixing.

Data of 80.2 fb${}^{-1}$ at 13 TeV, 19.7 fb${}^{-1}$ at 8 TeV, and 5.1 fb${}^{-1}$ at 7 TeV are used. See their Tables VI and VII for anomalous ${{\mathit H}}{{\mathit V}}{{\mathit V}}$ couplings of $\mathit CP$-violating and $\mathit CP$-conserving parameters with on- and off-shells. 5  SIRUNYAN 2019BZ constrain anomalous ${{\mathit H}}{{\mathit V}}{{\mathit V}}$ couplings of the Higgs boson with data of 35.9 fb${}^{-1}$ at $\mathit E_{{\mathrm {cm}}}$ = 13 TeV using Higgs boson candidates with two jets produced in VBF, ggF, and ${{\mathit V}}{{\mathit H}}$ that decay to ${{\mathit \tau}}{{\mathit \tau}}$ .

An upper limit of 0.36 of the Standard Model production rate at 95$\%$ CL is obtained both for a ${}^{}0{}^{-}$ and a ${}^{}2{}^{+}$ state. Assuming the SM event rate, the $\mathit J{}^{\mathit CP}$ = ${}^{}0{}^{-}$ (${}^{}2{}^{+}$) hypothesis is excluded at the 5.0$\sigma $ (4.9$\sigma $) level. 14  AALTONEN 2015B compare the $\mathit J{}^{\mathit CP}$ = ${}^{}0{}^{+}$ Standard Model assignment with other $\mathit J{}^{\mathit CP}$ hypotheses in 9.45 fb${}^{-1}$ of ${{\mathit p}}{{\overline{\mathit p}}}$ collisions at $\mathit E_{{\mathrm {cm}}}$ = 1.96 TeV, using the processes ${{\mathit Z}}$ ${{\mathit H}^{0}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \ell}}{{\mathit \ell}}{{\mathit b}}{{\overline{\mathit b}}}$ , ${{\mathit W}}$ ${{\mathit H}^{0}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \ell}}{{\mathit \nu}}{{\mathit b}}{{\overline{\mathit b}}}$ , and ${{\mathit Z}}$ ${{\mathit H}^{0}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \nu}}{{\mathit \nu}}{{\mathit b}}{{\overline{\mathit b}}}$ .

The data are compatible with the spin 0, $\mathit CP$-even hypothesis, while all other tested hypotheses are excluded at confidence levels above 97.8$\%$. 21  CHATRCHYAN 2013J study angular distributions of the lepton pairs in the ${{\mathit Z}}{{\mathit Z}^{*}}$ channel where both ${{\mathit Z}}$ bosons decay to ${{\mathit e}}$ or ${{\mathit \mu}}$ pairs. Under the assumption that the observed particle has spin 0, the data are found to be consistent with the pure $\mathit CP$-even hypothesis, while the pure $\mathit CP$-odd hypothesis is disfavored.
