One way to probe new physics beyond standard model is to check the correlation among higher dimension operators in effective field theory. We examine the strong correlation between the processes of $pp\rightarrow tHq$ and $pp\rightarrow tq$…
The reactions p\bar{p}/pp -> t\bar{t}H+X represent important channels in the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson at the Tevatron and the LHC. In the leading perturbative order the cross sections suffer from severe (renormalization and…
