Understanding the Higgs potential by measuring its self-interactions is fundamental in answering several big questions, such as electroweak symmetry breaking, electroweak baryogenesis, electroweak phase transition, and electroweak vacuum…
Effects from a finite top quark mass on differential distributions in the Higgs+jet production cross section through gluon fusion are studied at next-to-leading order in the strong coupling, i.e. $O(\alpha_s^4)$. Terms formally subleading…
Differential Higgs boson (H) production cross sections are sensitive probes for physics beyond the standard model. New physics may contribute in the gluon-gluon fusion loop, the dominant Higgs boson production mechanism at the LHC, and…
We consider the production of pairs of Standard Model Higgs bosons via gluon fusion. Until recently the full dependence on the top quark mass $M_t$ was not known at next-to-leading order. For this reason we apply an approximation based on…
Inclusive cross sections for Higgs boson production in proton-proton collisions are calculated in the formalism of unintegrated gluon distributions (UGDF). Different UGDF from the literature are used. Although they were constructed in order…

The transverse momentum $Q_T$ distribution is computed for inclusive Higgs boson production at $\sqrt{S} = 1.96$ TeV. We include all-orders resummation of large logarithms associated with emission of soft gluons at small $Q_T$. We provide…
Under certain conditions, the production of a Higgs boson in association with a top-anti-top pair at hadron colliders can be described via a factorisation theorem using perturbative fragmentation functions. The latter describe the nearly…
