Abstract:
A search for non-resonant Higgs boson pair production in proton-proton collisions at s=13 TeV\sqrt{s}=13~\mathrm{TeV} is presented. The Higgs bosons are searched in the bbˉ\rm{b} \bar{\rm{b}} final state. The data have been collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC during the year 2015, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.32 fb12.32~\rm{fb}^{-1}. No signal is observed and an upper limit of 3880 fb3880~\rm{fb} is set on the cross section of non-resonant Higgs pair-production times branching fraction squared of the Hbbˉ\rm{H} \to \rm{b} \bar{\rm{b}} decay.
