Search for Top Quark Decays via Higgs-Boson-Mediated Flavor-Changing Neutral Currents in Pp Collisions at √s = 8 TeV

Search for Top Quark Decays via Higgs-Boson-Mediated Flavor-Changing Neutral Currents in Pp Collisions at √s = 8 TeV

A search is performed for Higgs-boson-mediated flavor-changing neutral currents in the decays of top quarks. The search is based on proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb⁻¹ at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Even...
