Extending the search for di-higgs decaying to bbbb in the boosted channel with the ATLAS detector

After the discovery of the Higgs boson, new searches can now change their focus towards using it as a tool to probe both the Standard Model and new physics. One of such probes is the search for pair production of Higgs bosons. With the largest branching fraction, the bbbb final state is one of the leading candidates to observe this process This talk will feature a search for Higgs boson pair production in the bb̅bb̅ final state with the ATLAS detector in data collected in 2015 and 2016, and focus on the main obstacles faced by the boosted channel. It will then explore new ways approach these challenges and improve the sensitivity of future searches of this process
