Higgs boson production in association with top quarks in CMS

In this paper searches for Higgs bosons produced in association with top quarks are presented. The searches are performed using the data collected during the first LHC run at a center-of-mass energy of 7 and 8 TeV and results are presented for different Higgs boson decay final states, including bb‾, ττ, WW(⁎)/ZZ(⁎) and γγ, as well as their combination. The paper highlights experimental and theoretical challenges, in particular in view of the upcoming, higher energy LHC run.
