Mission Impossible? Probing the Higgs-charm quark coupling with CMS

• Loukas Gouskos (Brown University (US))

Room: Sunrise (WH11NE) I will present an overview of the main efforts in CMS to measure the Higgs-charm interaction (coupling), including the recent ttH(H->cc) result in this novel production mode. The talk will highlight state-of-the-art developments in physics object identification and event-level discrimination, driven by cutting-edge deep learning techniques, which are key to tackling this challenging but important measurement.
