Single top + Higgs -> bbar at CMS in proton proton collisions at sqrt{s}=13 TeV

Not scheduled

Description

The associated production of a single top quark together with a Higgs boson at the LHC can be used to lift the degeneracy regarding the sign of the top quark Yukawa coupling. We are looking for t-channel and tW-channel production where the Higgs boson is decaying into a bbar pair. Boosted decision trees are used to reconstruct and classify the events. Exclusion limits are measured at 51 points in the $c_v$-$c_f$ plane. I outline our analysis strategy and show first results of the 13 TeV run.
