Search for ttH and tH production with H->bb

Abstract

The results from searches for a Standard Model Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks and produced in association with top quarks at the Large Hadron Collider are presented. The analyses use a combination of data collected in proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV by the ATLAS and CMS detectors. No significant excess of events above the background expectation was found. Results are presented in terms of upper limits and best-fit values of the signal strength modifier relative to the Standard Model prediction.
