A feasibility study for an experimental analysis searching for $tbar{t}H(Hrightarrow bbar{b})$ production at the LHC and its high luminosity phase is presented in this note. Unlike search strategies currently being used in experimental collaborations, the present analysis exploits jet substructure techniques and focuses on the reconstruction of boosted Higgs bosons, to obtain sensitivity to the signal in a simple cut-based analysis. The $tbar{t} +$ jets background may be constrained in the proposed analysis through a control region with very small signal contamination. Using this analysis strategy, the $tbar{t}H(Hrightarrow bbar{b})$ process could be observed at the LHC, in the semi-leptonic channel alone, with a significance of $5.41pm 0.12$ for $mathcal{L}=300,mbox{fb}^{-1}$. For the same integrated luminosity, in the High Luminosity LHC scenario with an upgraded detector, a significance of $6.13pm 0.11$ may be obtained. The top Yukawa coupling could be measured with a 35% uncertainty using $mathcal{L}=300,mbox{fb}^{-1}$ of LHC data and of 17% at the HL-LHC scenario with $mathcal{L}=3000,mbox{fb}^{-1}$. In the same luminosity scenarios, the signal strength is equally expected to have a 18$%$ and 5$%$ uncertainty, respectively. Finally, it was found that re-clustered jets may be used without loss of efficiency.

The dominant contribution to $H^- tbar{b}$ production at the LHC is the gluon-gluon fusion parton subprocess. We perform for the case of the complex MSSM a complete calculation of the NLO electroweak contributions to this channel. The other small con
tributions with quarks or photon in the initial state are calculated at tree level. The results are improved by using the effective bottom-Higgs couplings to resum the leading radiative corrections. We find that, beyond these leading corrections, the NLO electroweak contributions can be still be significant. The effect of the complex phases of the soft-breaking parameters is found to be sizable.
We consider QCD radiative corrections to the associated production of a heavy-quark pair ($Q{bar Q}$) with a generic colourless system $F$ at hadron colliders. We discuss the resummation formalism for the production of the $Q{bar Q}F$ system at small
values of its total transverse momentum $q_T$. The perturbative expansion of the resummation formula leads to the explicit ingredients that can be used to apply the $q_T$ subtraction formalism to fixed-order calculations for this class of processes. We use the $q_T$ subtraction formalism to perform a fully differential perturbative computation for the production of a top-antitop quark pair and a Higgs boson. At next-to-leading order we compare our results with those obtained with established subtraction methods and we find complete agreement. We present, for the first time, the results for the flavour off-diagonal partonic channels at the next-to-next-to-leading order.
In the following we present our recent results on the resummation of soft gluon corrections to the $pprightarrow tbar{t}H$ cross section at the LHC. The resummation was carried out at next-to-next-to-leading-logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy using the Mell
in space technique. Obtained results were matched to the NLO cross section. We show that the resummation leads to reduction of scale-variation uncertainty of the total $pprightarrow tbar{t}H$ cross section.
We have implemented a code for Z + n jets production in ALPGEN, with Z decays into several final states, including l+ l- and t tbar. The MLM prescription is used for matching the matrix element with the parton shower, including in this way the leadin
g soft and collinear corrections. In order to demonstrate its capabilities, we perform a combined analysis of Z -> t tbar and Z -> t tbar j production for a heavy leptophobic gauge boson. It is found that the effect of the extra jet cannot only be accounted for by a K factor multiplying the leading-order cross section. In fact, the combined analysis for Z -> t tbar and Z -> t tbar j presented improves the statistical significance of the signal by 25% (8.55 sigma versus 6.77 sigma for a Z mass of 1 TeV), compared with the results of an inclusive analysis carried out on the same sample of t tbar + t tbar j events.
The CP nature of the Higgs coupling to top quarks is addressed in this paper, in single charged lepton final states of $tbar{t}h$ events produced in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. Pure scalar ($h=H$) and pseudo-scalar ($h=A$) Higgs boson signal
events, generated with MadGraph5_aMC@NLO, are fully reconstructed using a kinematic fit. Angular distributions of the decay products, as well as CP-sensitive asymmetries, are exploited to separate and gain sensitivity to possible pseudo-scalar components of the Higgs boson and reduce the contribution from the dominant irreducible background $tbar{t}bbar{b}$. Significant differences are found between the pure CP-even and -odd signal hypotheses as well as with respect to the Standard Model background, in particular the $tbar{t} bbar{b}$ contribution. Such differences survive the event reconstruction, allowing to define optimal observables to extract the Higgs couplings parameters from a global fit. A dedicated analysis is applied to efficiently identify signal events and reject as much as possible the expected Standard Model background. The results obtained are compared with a similar analysis in the dilepton channel. We show that the single lepton channel is more promising overall and can be used in combination to study the CP nature of the Higgs coupling to top quarks.
