Figure 1: Candidate event for a Higgs decay to charm quarks. The two charm-tagged jets are shown as blue cones, and the two muons from a possible decay of a Z boson are shown in red.

New ATLAS search for Higgs decays to charm quarks

Physicists from Cern's ATLAS experiment have been able to probe the Higgs coupling to b- and c-quarks simultaneously using direct Higgs decays – a huge improvement on previous measurements.
