The t->cH decay width in the standard model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The t->cH decay width has been computed in the standard model with a light Higgs boson. The corresponding branching fraction has been found to be in the range B(t->cH) ~ 10^{-13} - 10^{-14} for M_Z < m_H < 2 M_W. Our results correct the numerical evaluation usually quoted in the literature.
