| contents | We studied the collider phenomenology of third-generation scalar leptoquarks at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with a 14 TeV center-of-mass energy. The analysis focuses on leptoquarks decaying exclusively into top quarks and tau leptons, employing machine learning-based tagging techniques for identifying hadronically decaying boosted top quarks, W/Z, and Higgs bosons, as well as a multivariate classifier to distinguish signal events from Standard Model (SM) backgrounds. The expected 95% confidence level (CL) upper limits on the leptoquark production cross-section are computed assuming integrated luminosities of 200 and 500 inverse femtobarns at the 14 TeV LHC. The results demonstrate significant sensitivity improvements for detecting leptoquarks at masses beyond the current experimental limits. |
