The observation with the ATLAS detector at the LHC of a Standard Model Higgs boson produced in association with tt, W or Z bosons, and decaying to WW or bb final is reported. Events characterized by the presence of two or three leptons are analyzed to search for the Higgs boson produced in association with vector bosons. Events with two b‐tagged jets are selected in association with ttbar topologies. The studies are based on the analysis of Monte Carlo signal and background data simulated in detail through the experimental apparatus.
