Search for the production of the Higgs boson in association with a pair of top quarks in the four leptons final state at 13 TeV in ATLASJulien Caudron1, Markus Cristinziani1, Mazuza Ghneimat1, Carlo A.

The top Yukawa coupling is predicted to be large by the Standard Model and can be directly accessed by measuring ttH production at LHC. Depending on the decay of the Higgs boson and the top-quark pair, several final states are possible. The four-lepton channel is statistically limited by the small branching fraction, but it has a high purity and is not strongly affected by non-prompt backgrounds, events that contain leptons which are not originating from the primary interaction vertex.

The analysis selects events with exactly four reconstructed leptons and multiple jets. The most dominant background is the production of ttZ, whose four leptons have a kinematics very similar to that of leptons in signal events, and diboson, whose cross section is much larger. I will present the ATLAS analysis performed with 36 fb−1, which has been recently realeased.
