The search is performed in the mass range 240–1000 GeV for the resonance X, and in the mass range 70–800 GeV for the particle Y, using proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 132 fb-1. In general, the data are found to be compatible with the standard model expectation. Observed (expected) upper limits at 95% confidence level on the product of the production cross section and the relevant branching fraction are extracted for the X ? YH process, and are found to be within the range of 0.05–2.69 (0.08–1.94) fb, depending on mX and mY. The most significant deviation from the background-only hypothesis is observed for X and Y masses of 300 and 77 GeV, respectively, with a local (global) significance of 3.33 (0.65) standard deviations. © The Author(s) 2025.Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH2025Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/10546https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep12(2025)1781029-8479enJournal of High Energy Physicsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/10546
