| Abstract: This note presents the first search for b quark associated production of the Higgs boson, in final states with leptons. Higgs boson decays to pairs of tau leptons and pairs of leptonically decaying W bosons are considered. The search is performed using data collected from 2016 to 2018 by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$ ^{-1} $. Upper limits at the 95% confidence level are placed on the signal strength for Higgs boson production in association with b quarks; the observed (expected) upper limit is 3.7 (6.1) times the value expected in the standard model. | ||
