Jet tagging has become an essential tool for new physics searches at the high-energy frontier. For jets that contain energetic charged leptons we introduce Feature Extended Supervised Tagging (FEST) which, in addition to jet substructure, considers the features of the charged lepton within the jet. With this method we build dedicated taggers to discriminate among boosted $H to ell u q bar q$, $t to ell u b$, and QCD jets (with $ell$ an electron or muon). The taggers have an impressive performance, allowing for overall light jet rejection factors of $10^4-10^5$, for top quark / Higgs boson efficiencies of $0.5$. The taggers are also excellent in the discrimination of Higgs bosons from top quarks and vice versa, for example rejecting top quarks by factors of $100-300$ for Higgs boson efficiencies of $0.5$. We demonstrate the potential of these taggers to improve the sensitivity to new physics by using as example a search for a new $Z$ boson decaying into $Z H$, in the fully-hadronic final state.

We construct a procedure to separate boosted Higgs bosons decaying into hadrons, from the background due to strong interactions. We employ the Lund jet plane to obtain a theoretically well-motivated representation of the jets of interest and we use t
he resulting images as the input to a convolutional neural network classifier. In particular, we consider two different decay modes of the Higgs boson, namely into a pair of bottom quarks or into light jets, against the respective backgrounds. For each case, we consider both a moderate- and high- boost scenario. The performance of the tagger is compared to what is achieved using a traditional single-variable analysis which exploits a QCD inspired color-singlet tagger, namely the jet color ring observable. Furthermore, we study the dependence of the taggers performance on the requirement that the invariant mass of the selected jets should be close to the Higgs mass.
We demonstrate that the multi-top productions efficiently probe the CP-property of top-Higgs interaction and the Higgs-boson width at the LHC. The four top-quark production alone can exclude a purely CP-odd top-quark Yukawa coupling at the 13~TeV LHC
with an integrated luminosity of $430~{rm fb}^{-1}$, regardless the size of the Yukawa coupling. Combining the single Higgs-boson production, the $tbar{t}H$ associated production and the four top-quark production, we show that the CP-phase of the top-quark Yukawa coupling and the Higgs-boson width can be stringently bounded at the LHC with integrated luminosities of $300~{rm fb}^{-1}$ and $3000~{rm fb}^{-1}$.
We propose a method to probe the coupling of the Higgs to strange quarks by tagging strange jets at future lepton colliders. For this purpose we describe a jet-flavor observable, $J_F$, that is correlated with the flavor of the quark associated with
the hard part of the jet. Using this variable, we set up a strangeness tagger aimed at studying the decay $hto sbar{s}$. We determine the sensitivity of our method to the strange Yukawa coupling, and find it to be of the order of the standard-model expectation.
We introduce a new and highly efficient tagger for hadronically decaying top quarks, based on a deep neural network working with Lorentz vectors and the Minkowski metric. With its novel machine learning setup and architecture it allows us to identify
boosted top quarks not only from calorimeter towers, but also including tracking information. We show how the performance of our tagger compares with QCD-inspired and image-recognition approaches and find that it significantly increases the performance for strongly boosted top quarks.
Top polarization is an important probe of new physics that couples to the top sector, and which may be discovered at the 14 TeV LHC. Taking the example of the MSSM, we argue that top polarization measurements can put a constraint on the soft supersym
metry breaking parameter A_t. In light of the recent discovery of a Higgs-like boson of mass ~125 GeV, a large A_t is a prediction of many supersymmetric models. To this end, we develop a *detector level* analysis methodology for extracting polarization information from hadronic tops using boosted jet substructure. We show that with 100 fb^(-1) of data, left and right 600 GeV stops can be distinguished to 4sigma, and 800 GeV stops can be distinguished to 3sigma.
