Further, the thesis presents the combination of this search for top quark pair events with other ATLAS searches ? in the course of which the most restrictive bounds to date on tqH interactions were obtained. Following on from the discovery of the Higgs boson, it is particularly important to measure the Yukawa couplings of the Standard Model fermions; these parameters may provide crucial insights to help solve the flavor puzzle and may help reveal the presence of new physics before it is directly observed in experiments. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aElementary particles (Physics) 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aPhysics 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029 606 $aNumerical and Computational Physics, Simulation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021 615 0$aElementary particles (Physics). 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 14$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 615 24$aNumerical and Computational Physics, Simulation. 676 $a530 700 $aTsiskaridze$b Shota$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0825010 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254598103321 996 $aSearch for Flavor-Changing Neutral Current Top Quark Decays t ?
