Abstract

The LHC represents the current energy frontier in collider experiments. Its most notable result so far was the experimental discovery of the Higgs boson, by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. It is also very well suited to explore the physics of the top quark, the heaviest known elementary particle, with a Yukawa coupling of order 1. The data collected by these experiments during the LHC Run II allowed the measurement of top and Higgs experimental results, which provide very stringent tests of the Standard Model expectations near the electroweak scale, and therefore likely windows into new physics. The present article discusses the most recent experimental highlights in this area.
