Description

In this ongoing work, we study the phenomenology of Higgs pair production with a pair of top quarks ($pp\to t\bar{t}hh$) at the HL-LHC. Several final state/channels are simulated and evaluated with the help of multivariable analysis techniques. It turns out that the multi-$b$ + single lepton channel contributes the most to the signal significance, followed by the same-sign dilepton channel. The constraints on $hhh$ and $t\bar{t}hh$ couplingss are comparable to those gained from Di-Higgs or VBF analyses. We also discuss the potential of $t\bar{t}hh$ as a probe of resonances in new physics such as top partner pair production or heavy Higgs bosons.
