Higgs-Boson Production in Association with Bottom Quarks at Next-to-Leading Order
نویسندگان
چکیده
We argue that the leading-order subprocess for Higgs-boson production in association with bottom quarks is bb̄ → H. This process is an important source of Higgs bosons with enhanced Yukawa coupling to bottom quarks. We calculate the corrections to this cross section at next-to-leading-order in 1/ ln(mH/mb) and αs and at next-to-next-to-leading order in 1/ ln(mH/mb).

Higgs-Boson Production in Association with a Single Bottom Quark
Higgs bosons from an extended Higgs sector, such as a two-Higgs-doublet model, can have greatly enhanced coupling to the bottom quark. Producing such a Higgs boson in association with a single high-pT bottom quark via gb → hb allows for the suppression of backgrounds. Previous studies have instead used gg, qq̄ → bb̄h as the production mechanism, which is valid only if both b quarks are at high pT...

Higgs boson production in association with bottom quarks, is one of the most important discovery channels for Higgs particles in the Standard Model (SM) and its supersymmetric extension at the LHC pp collider . The theoretical prediction of the corresponding cross section has been improved by including the complete next-to-leading order QCD corrections. We review the status results for the lead...

In the Standard Model, the coupling of the Higgs boson to b quarks is weak, leading to small cross sections for producing a Higgs boson in association with b quarks. However, Higgs bosons with enhanced couplings to b quarks, such as occur in supersymmetric models for large values of tan β, will be copiously produced at both the Tevatron and the LHC in association with b quarks which will be an ...

Higgs-boson production in association with bottom quarks, pp̄/pp→ bb̄H+X, is an important discovery channel for supersymmetric Higgs particles at the Tevatron and the LHC. We present higher-order QCD predictions for inclusive cross sections and for the production of a Higgs boson in association with high-pT bottom quarks. We compare calculations performed in a four-flavour scheme based on the par...
متن کاملProduction of a pseudo-scalar Higgs boson at hadron colliders at next-to-next-to leading order
The production cross section for pseudo-scalar Higgs bosons at hadron colliders is computed at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD. The pseudo-scalar Higgs is assumed to couple only to top quarks. The NNLO effects are evaluated using an effective Lagrangian where the top quarks are integrated out. The NNLO corrections are similar in size to those found for scalar Higgs boson production.
