Gluon-fusion contributions to Higgs plus two-jet production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2011-05-05 v1

Abstract

Real emission corrections to Higgs production via gluon fusion, at order alpha_s^4, lead to a Higgs plus two-jet final state. We present the calculation of these scattering amplitudes, as induced by top-quark triangle-, box- and pentagon-loop diagrams. These diagrams are evaluated analytically for arbitrary top mass m_t. We study the renormalization and factorization scale-dependence of the resulting H + 2 jet cross section, and discuss phenomenologically important distributions at the LHC. The gluon fusion results are compared to expectations for weak-boson fusion cross sections.
