Description

We introduce a novel search strategy for heavy top-philic resonances that induce new contributions to four-top production at the LHC. We capitalize on recent advances in top-tagging performance to demonstrate that the final state, that is expected to be boosted based on current limits, can be fully reconstructed and exploited. Notably, our approach promises bounds on new physics cross sections that are a few to 60 times stronger than those obtained with existing searches showcasing its unprecedented effectiveness in probing top-philic new physics.
