abstract

The associated production of a Higgs boson and a top-quark pair, $t{\bar t} H$, in proton-proton collisions is addressed in this paper for a center of mass energy of 13TeV at the LHC. Dileptonic final states of $t{\bar t}H$ events with two oppositely charged leptons and four jets from the decays $t\rightarrow bW^+ \rightarrow b \ell^+\nu_\ell$, $\bar{t}\rightarrow \bar{b}W^- \rightarrow \bar{b} \ell^-\bar{\nu}_\ell$ and $h\rightarrow b\bar{b}$, are used. Signal events, generated with MadGraph5_aMC@NLO, are fully reconstructed by applying a kinematic fit. New angular distributions of the decay products as well as angular asymmetries are explored in order to improve discrimination of $t{\bar t} H$ signal events over the dominant irreducible background contribution, $t{\bar t}b{\bar b}$. Even after the full kinematic fit reconstruction of the events, the proposed angular distributions and asymmetries are still quite different in the $t\bar{t}H$ signal and the dominant background ($t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$).

  1. $t \bar{t}$ production as a window to invisible new physics

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Phenomenological LHC study finds sensitivity to light spin-1 DM mediators in ttbar events and discrimination power from CP-sensitive angular observables in dileptonic final states.

  2. The Role of the $t{\bar t}h$ Rest Frame in Direct Top-Quark Yukawa Coupling Measurements

    hep-ph 2019-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Evaluating the b2 and b4 angular observables in the ttbar h rest frame, instead of the lab frame, reduces by about 250 inverse femtobarns the integrated luminosity needed to exclude a pure CP-odd top-quark Yukawa coupling.
