Measurements of inclusive and differential cross sections for Higgs boson production with decay to four leptons in proton-proton collisions at 13.6 TeV

Measurements of Higgs boson ($\mathrm{H}$) production cross sections in the four-lepton ($4\ell, \ell=\mathrm{e},\mu$) final state at a center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=13.6\,\mathrm{TeV}$ are presented. These measurements are based on data collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC between 2022 and 2024, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $171\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. Cross sections are measured in a fiducial region closely matching the experimental acceptance, both inclusively and differentially, as a function of a range of observables. Dedicated measurements targeting the production of the Higgs boson via vector boson fusion are also performed. The $\mathrm{H}\to\mathrm{ZZ}\to 4\ell$ inclusive fiducial cross section is measured to be $\sigma_\mathrm{fid} = 3.11^{+0.22}_{-0.22}(\mathrm{stat.})^{+0.14}_{-0.12}(\mathrm{syst.})\, \mathrm{fb}$, in agreement with the standard model expectation of $3.05^{+0.17}_{-0.22}\, \mathrm{fb}$.

Measurement of the 3 Top Quark Production

A search for the standard model production of three top quarks is presented. The data analyzed were collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $13~\mathrm{TeV}$ and correspond to an integrated luminosity of $138~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. Selected events are required to contain jets and either one lepton (electron or muon), two same-sign charged leptons, or at least three leptons. The results are derived from the combination of these three lepton categories. Novel multivariate techniques are employed to take full advantage of kinematic differences between the studied signal and the major background. This analysis provides the first LHC result specifically targeting three-top-quark production. No significant deviations with respect to the standard model predictions are observed, and an upper limit of $25~\mathrm{fb}$ is set on the signal cross section at $95\%$ confidence level.
