Searches are performed for nonresonant and resonant di-Higgs boson production in the $b\bar{b}γγ$ final state. The dataset used corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{-1}$ of proton–proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. No excess above the expected background is found and upper limits on the di-Higgs boson production cross sections are set. A 95% confidence-level upper limit of 4.2 times the cross section predicted by the Standard Model is set on $pp→HH$ nonresonant production, where the expected limit is 5.7 times the Standard Model predicted value. The expected constraints are obtained for a background hypothesis excluding $pp→HH$ production. The observed (expected) constraints on the Higgs boson trilinear coupling modifier $κλ$ are determined to be [-1.5,6.7] ([-2.4,7.7]) at 95% confidence level, where the expected constraints on $κλ$ are obtained excluding $pp→HH$ production from the background hypothesis. For resonant production of a new hypothetical scalar particle $X (X → HH → b\bar{b}γγ)$, limits on the cross section for $pp→X→HH$ are presented in the narrow-width approximation as a function of mX in the range 251 GeV$≤mX≤$1000 GeV. The observed (expected) limits on the cross section for $pp→X→HH$ range from 640 fb to 44 fb (391 fb to 46 fb) over the considered mass range.
