NLO Electroweak Corrections to Higgs Boson Production at

چکیده
Results for the complete NLO electroweak corrections to Standard Model Higgs production via gluon fusion are included in the total cross section for hadronic collisions. Artificially large threshold effects are avoided working in the complex-mass scheme. The numerical impact at LHC (Tevatron) energies is explored for Higgs mass values up to 500 GeV (200 GeV). Assuming a complete factorization of the electroweak corrections, one finds a +5% shift with respect to the NNLO QCD cross section for a Higgs mass of 120 GeV both at the LHC and the Tevatron. Adopting two different factorization schemes for the electroweak effects, an estimate of the corresponding total theoretical uncertainty is computed.

Electroweak Higgs boson plus three jet production at next-to-leading-order QCD.
We calculate next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to electroweak Higgs boson plus three jet production. Both vector boson fusion (VBF) and Higgs-strahlung type contributions are included along with all interferences. The calculation is implemented within the Matchbox NLO framework of the Herwig++ event generator.

The implementation of the full next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to electroweak Higgs boson plus three jet production at hadron colliders such as the LHC within the Matchbox NLO framework of the Herwig++ event generator is discussed. We present numerical results for integrated cross sections and kinematic distributions.

We present results on the strong and electroweak NLO corrections to the production of a Higgs boson plus two hard jets via weak interactions at the LHC. The calculation includes all weak-boson fusion and quark– antiquark annihilation diagrams as well as all related interferences. We discuss corrections of different origin (QCD corrections of vector-boson-fusion type and interferences, electrowe...
متن کاملNLO Electroweak Corrections to Higgs Boson Production at Hadron Colliders
We present the complete two-loop electroweak corrections to gg → H, the main partonic channel for the production of the Higgs boson at hadron colliders. The evaluation is based on a numerical approach and the result covers all kinematical regions, including WW and ZZ thresholds, by introducing complex masses for the W and the Z bosons. Furthermore the relation between physical observables measu...
متن کاملNLO Electroweak Corrections to Higgs Decay to Two Photons
The production of the Standard Model Higgs boson in photon-photon collisions represents an interesting mechanism for measuring the partial width Γ(H → γγ) with a 3% accuracy at an upgrade option of the International Linear Collider (see [2] and references therein). Therefore, the computation of radiative corrections to the leading order (LO) decay width [3] has been an active field of research ...
