Abstract
At the LHC associated top quark and Higgs boson production with a Higgs decay to bottom quarks has long been a heavily disputed search channel. Recently, it has been found to not be viable. We show how it can be observed by tagging massive Higgs and top jets. For this purpose we construct boosted top and Higgs taggers for Standard Model processes in a complex QCD environment.
