Search for the Higgs plus charm quark production mode in the H→ WW→ eνµν channel — •Ming-Yan Lee, Alexander Schmidt, Andrey Pozdnyakov, Uttiya Sarkar, and Valentyn Vaulin — III. Physikalisches Institut A, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany

The Higgs plus charm production mode is another topology to probe the Higgs-charm Yukawa coupling complementary to H→cc channels. This topology provides the possibility to access the Higgs-charm coupling via cleaner final states. In this analysis, we aim to consider the Higgs decay into W boson to dileptonic final states with additional charm-tagged jets. The upper limit to extract H-c coupling is demonstrated using the data-taking period 2016 to 2018 of the CMS experiment at the LHC at √s=13 TeV.
