摘要

This paper presents the first search for non-resonant Higgs boson pair production in association with a top-quark pair ($t\bar{t}HH$) using proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 196 fb$^{-1}$, comprising 140 fb$^{-1}$ at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV and 56 fb$^{-1}$ at 13.6 TeV. The search targets three distinct final states expected from $t\bar{t}HH$ decays: (i) one lepton (electron or muon) with at least five $b$-quarks, (ii) at least two $b$-quarks accompanied by two leptons with the same electric charges or multiple leptons, and (iii) at least three $b$-quarks with two photons. The $t\bar{t}HH$ production cross-section, relative to its Standard Model prediction, is measured to be $μ_{t\bar{t}HH}=-3^{+11}_{-12}$. This result corresponds to a 95$\% $ confidence-level upper limit of 20 times the Standard Model prediction for the $t\bar{t}HH$ production cross-section, with an expected limit of 21. The Higgs effective field theory Wilson coefficient $c_{t\bar{t}HH}$ is also constrained at the same confidence level to the range of $-3.9
