Top-Yukawa-induced Corrections to Higgs Pair Production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2022-11-23 v1 High Energy Physics - Experiment

Abstract

Higgs-boson pair production at hadron colliders is dominantly mediated by the loop-induced gluon-fusion process ggHHgg\to HH that is generated by heavy top loops within the Standard Model with a minor per-cent level contamination of bottom-loop contributions. The QCD corrections turn out to be large for this process. In this note, we derive the top-Yukawa-induced part of the electroweak corrections to this process and discuss their relation to an effective trilinear Higgs coupling with integrated out top-quark contributions.
