The cross section for the reaction $e^+e^- \to t\bar{t} H$ depends sensitively on the top quark Yukwawa coupling $\lambda_t$. We calculate the rate for $t\bar{t}H$ production, followed by the decay $H\to b\bar{b}$, for a Standard Model…

Search for the Higgs Boson is one of the prime goals of the LHC. Higgs bosons lighter than 130 GeV decay mainly to a b-quark pair. While the detection of a directly produced Higgs boson in the bb channel is impossible because of the huge…
The associated production of Higgs boson and single top quark is of particular interest since it is senstive to the relative sign of the Higgs boson coupling to gauge bosons and the Yukawa coupling $y$ to fermions. The presented analysis is…
We show how a measurement of the process pp-->t tbar H + X at the LHC and a measurement of the Higgs boson branching ratios BR(H-->b bar) and BR(H-->W+W-) at a future linear electron positron collider can be combined to extract a…
Yukawa couplings of the first quark generation are notoriously difficult to constrain due to their small values within the Standard Model. Here we propose Higgs off-shell production, with the Higgs boson decaying to four leptons, as a probe…
The ATLAS and CMS collaborations recently announced the observation of the associated production of the Higgs boson with a top quark pair ($t\bar tH$) at the LHC. This process depends directly on the the top quark Yukawa coupling and…

A search is performed for Higgs bosons produced in association with top quarks using the diphoton decay mode of the Higgs boson. Selection requirements are optimized separately for leptonic and fully hadronic final states from the top quark…
The direct observation of the Yukawa interaction related to Standard Model Higgs and the bottom quark is obtained from the $h\to b\bar{b}$ process recently. The b-tagging becomes an important tool to search for new heavy resonance…
Associated production of the Higgs boson with a single top quark proceeds through Feynman diagrams, which are either proportional to the hWW, top-Yukawa, or the bottom-Yukawa couplings. It was shown in literature that the interference…

Current Higgs data show an ambiguity in the value of the Yukawa couplings to quarks and leptons. Not so much because of still large uncertainties in the measurements but as the result of several almost degenerate minima in the coupling…
