We present updated inclusive cross sections for electroweak Higgs boson pair production for energies of relevance to the LHC and High-Luminosity phase of the LHC. The cross sections are presented at N$^3$LO QCD+NLO EW for vector-boson…
We compute the contribution to charged Higgs boson pair production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) due to the scattering of two electroweak (EW) gauge bosons, these being in turn generated via bremsstrahlung off incoming quarks: q q -->…
We report on the possibility of observing Higgs sector CP violation of the minimal supersymmetric standard model at a hadron machine. The CP phase dependent cross-sections for the $VH_i$ associated production processes are given for the…
Weak boson fusion is expected to be an important Higgs production channel at the LHC. Complete one-loop results for weak boson fusion in the Standard Model have been obtained by calculating the full virtual electroweak corrections and…
We investigate the production of three Higgs bosons in the Two Real Singlet extension of the Standard Model, where the scalar sector is augmented by two additional real scalar fields which are singlets under the Standard Model gauge group.…
We study the observability of new interactions which modify Higgs-pair production via vector-boson fusion processes at the LHC and at future proton-proton colliders. In an effective-Lagrangian approach, we explore in particular the effect…
We propose a sensitive way to test the anomalous HVV couplings (V=W(+/-),Z(0)) of the Higgs boson (H), which can arise from either the dimension-3 effective operator in a nonlinearly realized Higgs sector or the dimension-6 effective…
In the Standard Model, the coupling of the Higgs boson to b quarks is weak, leading to small cross sections for producing a Higgs boson in association with b quarks. However, Higgs bosons with enhanced couplings to b quarks, such as occur…
We study the sensitivities of non-standard top and Higgs couplings in the $pp\to thj$ process at the 14 TeV high-luminosity run of Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). We calculate top polarization and construct various lab-frame observables to…
We point out that gauge bosons emissions should be carefully estimated when considering LHC observables, since real $Ws$ and $Zs$ contributions can dramatically change cross sections with respect to tree level values. Here we consider…
We study a simple effective field theory incorporating six heavy vector bosons together with the standard-model field content. The new particles preserve custodial symmetry as well as an approximate left-right parity symmetry. The enhanced…
Exploiting the fact that $W$ pair production in high-energy $\gamma \gamma$ collisions is very large, we use this process to trigger Higgs, $Z$ or photon radiation. We find that there are sizeable rising cross-sections for triple bosons…
Pair production of Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is known to be important for the determination of Higgs boson self-coupling and the probe of new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM), especially the existence of new…

We present an updated overview on the phenomenology of one-loop Higgs boson production at Linear Colliders within the general Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM). First we report on the Higgs boson pair production, and associated Higgs-Z boson…
The search for di-Higgs production at the LHC in order to set limits on Higgs trilinear coupling and constraints on new physics is one of the main motivations for the LHC high luminosity phase. Recent experimental analyses suggest that such…
