Fermionic Higgs decays

The fermionic decays of the Higgs boson is essential to establish the nature of the newly discovered boson. The two main final state which are accessible at the LHC are b-quark pair and tau lepton pair decay, making these searches experimentally challenging. In some cases, the exploitation of specific Higgs boson production mode allow to significantly increase the experimental sensitivity. One can also complete the search looking at the di-muon final state. This presentation gives an overview of Higgs searches in these 3 final states in the ATLAS and the CMS experiment, focusing on the most recent developments and results.
