Higher-Order QCD Corrections to Higgs Boson Transverse-Momentum Distribution
Frascati Physics Series 70 (2017) 27-31
Abstract:
We present up-to-date Standard Model theory predictions for the Higgs transverse-momentum (pâŠ1) distribution. In the region of intermediate values of transverse momenta we present the NNLL+NLO QCD predictions including both top and bottom quark contributions. At very large pâŠ1 2mtwe show the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production of the Higgs boson at the LHC.The Higgs transverse momentum spectrum with finite quark masses beyond leading order

Jet-vetoed Higgs cross section in gluon fusion at N3LO+NNLL with small-R resummation
Journal of High Energy Physics Springer Verlag 2016:4 (2016) 1-31
Abstract:
We present new results for the jet-veto efficiency and zero-jet cross section in Higgs production through gluon fusion. We incorporate the N3LO corrections to the total cross section, the NNLO corrections to the 1-jet rate, NNLL resummation for the jet p t and LL resummation for the jet radius dependence. Our results include known finite-mass corrections and are obtained using the jet-veto efficiency method, updated relative to earlier work to take into account what has been learnt from the new precision calculations that we include. For 13 TeV collisions and using our default choice for the renormalisation and factorisation scales, μ 0 = m H /2, the matched prediction for the jet-veto efficiency increases the pure N3LO prediction by about 2% and the two have comparable uncertainties. Relative to NNLO+NNLL results, the new prediction is 2% smaller and the uncertainty reduces from about 10% to a few percent. Results are also presented for the central scale μ 0 = m H .QCD corrections to W+W− production through gluon fusion
