With an expected rate of about one event per 100,000 top-quark pairs, four top-quark final states very rarely arise at the LHC. Though scarce, they offer a unique window onto top-quark compositeness, self-interactions and more generically, onto any top-philic new physics. By employing simplified models featuring heavy resonances, we study the range of validity of effective theory interpretations of current four top-quark analyses at the LHC and establish their future reach at the HL-LHC. We find that for the class of models under consideration, the effective field theory interpretations are not applicable. We therefore present the most up-to-date limits obtained from public CMS analyses using simplified models. Finally, we put forward a novel recasting strategy for the experimental results based on the production of top quarks with large transverse momentum.

  1. The inseparable three and four tops

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Full-NLO predictions for tttW production, combined with tttt through a new window-removal prescription, give a joint inclusive rate more than 10% above the on-shell four-top prediction.

  2. Phenomenology of a Kinetic Higgs Portal

    hep-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A momentum-dependent Higgs portal can hide invisible decays, make four-top production the most sensitive probe, and open a dark-matter region immune to direct detection.

  3. Constraining four-heavy-quark operators with top-quark, Higgs, and electroweak precision data

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A combined fit of LHC and LEP data constrains the five four-heavy-quark Wilson coefficients, and shows that gamma5-scheme choices can shift the resulting bounds.

  4. Hunting and identifying coloured resonances in four top events with machine learning

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A neural network analysis of four-top events projects discovery of colour octet and sextet scalars up to about 1.8 to 1.9 TeV at the HL-LHC and can distinguish their colour representations.

  5. Harnessing Higgs Kinematics for HEFT Constraints

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Reweighting Standard Model di-Higgs events with a momentum-dependent HEFT coupling gives expected Run 3 and HL-LHC constraints on a_22 and a_dd2, with four-top data helping to pin down a_22.
