Abstract
A search for standard model Higgs bosons produced with transverse momentum greater than $450~\text{GeV}$ and decaying to charm quark-antiquark pairs is performed using proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at $13~\text{TeV}$. The search is inclusive in the Higgs boson production mode. Highly Lorentz-boosted Higgs bosons are reconstructed as single large-radius jets and are identified using a dedicated tagging technique based on a Deep Neural Network. The method is validated with Z to charm quark-antiquark pair decays and this process is observed for the first time in association with jets at a hadron collider.
