Read article 'ATLAS reports direct evidence for Higgs–top coupling'
The coupling can be directly probed by measuring the rate of events in which a Higgs boson is produced in association with a pair of top quarks.
Read article 'CMS sees Higgs boson decaying to b-quarks'
The Higgs boson decays to a pair of b quarks is by far the most frequent decay channel, however the signal is overwhelmed by QCD production.

While only retaining 40% of the events, the total uncertainty is improved by 19%, leading to a top-quark mass of 172.08±0.91 GeV.

This year’s EPS conference was also the first large conference where the results from the 2015 and 2016 runs of the LHC at 13 TeV were presented.
Read article 'ATLAS finds evidence for Higgs to bb'
To find evidence for the H → bb decay in the VH production channel, it is necessary to use detailed information on the properties of the decay products.
Read article 'CMS observes production of same-sign W-boson pairs'
A recent analysis by CMS aimed to identify events in which a W-boson pair is produced purely via the electroweak interaction.

One of the most sensitive measurement channels involves Higgs boson decays via two Z bosons to four leptons.
