Search for higgs boson pair production in events with two bottom quarks and two tau leptons in proton–proton collisions at s=13TeV

A search for the production of Higgs boson pairs in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is presented, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Events with one Higgs boson decaying into two botto...
