Аннотация:The first observation of the tt¯H process in a single Higgs boson decay channel with the full reconstruction of the final state (H→γγ) is presented, with a significance of 6.6 standard deviations (σ). The CP structure of Higgs boson couplings to fermions is measured, resulting in an exclusion of the pure CP-odd structure of the top Yukawa coupling at 3.2σ. The measurements are based on a sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy s√= 13 TeV collected by the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb−1. The cross section times branching fraction of the tt¯H process is measured to be σtt¯HBγγ= 1.56 +0.34−0.32 fb, which is compatible with the standard model prediction of 1.13 +0.08−0.11 fb. The fractional contribution of the CP-odd component is measured to be fHttCP= 0.00 ± 0.33.
