Mass and Width of a Heavy Higgs Boson

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The gauge dependence of the Higgs-boson mass and width in the on-shell scheme of renormalization is studied in the heavy-Higgs-boson approximation. The corresponding expansions in the pole scheme are analyzed adopting three frequently employed parametrizations. The convergence properties and other theoretical features of the on-shell and pole expansions, as well as their relative merits, are discussed.
