If the Einstein field equations are employed at the tree level, then the decay of the standard model Higgs particle into two gravitons is shown to be independent of the gravitational coupling strength G. The result follows from the physical…
The decays of a scalar particle, of either parity, into two photons or into two gravitons are evaluated. The effective interactions are of the form $\phi FF, \phi F\tilde{F}$ or $\phi RR,\phi R\tilde{R}$; in particular, Higgs boson decay…
We comment on the recently reiterated claim that the contribution of the W-boson loop to the Higgs boson decay into two photons leads to different expressions in the $R_\xi$ gauge and the unitary gauge. By applying a gauge-symmetry…
We calculate the two body Higgs boson decays in the framework of the littlest Higgs model. The decay $H \to \gamma Z$ is computed at one loop level and, using previous results, we evaluate the branching fractions in the framework of the…

The one-loop calculation of the amplitude for the Higgs decay H-->\gamma\gamma\ due to virtual W's in the unitary gauge is presented. As the Higgs does not directly couple to the massless photons, the one-loop amplitude is finite. The…
The decay of the standard model Higgs boson into a single photon and a vector unparticle through a one-loop process is studied. For an intermediate mass Higgs boson, this single photon plus unparticle mode can have a branching ratio…
Rare Higgs decays into a pair of heavy vector quarkonia, $h\to VV$ ($V=J/\Psi$, $\Upsilon$ etc.), have been investigated in the standard model. Different from the past literature in which these decays are thought to be only dominated by the…
The decay of the Standard Model Higgs boson in the intermediate-mass range into gluons is considered where special emphasis is put on the influence of the leading electroweak corrections proportional to G_F m_t^2. An effective Lagrangian…
The couplings of Higgs particles to two photons are analyzed in the threshold region, where the Higgs mass is about twice the loop--particle mass leading to possible bound state formation. The amplitude of the pseudoscalar decay $A\to…
A search is performed for a Higgs boson, decaying into two photons, using the L3 data collected at centre of mass energies between $\sqrt s$ = 189 and 202 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 400 pb$^{-1}$. The processes…
The one-loop Higgs coupling to two gluons has been invoked in the past to estimate that the fraction of the nucleon mass which is due to the Higgs is rather small but calculable (approximately 8 percent). To test the veracity of this…
A search for the decay of the Higgs boson to a $Z$ boson and a light, pseudoscalar particle, $a$, decaying respectively to two leptons and to two photons is reported. The search uses the full LHC Run 2 proton-proton collision data at…
The decay $H\to \ell^+\ell^- \gamma$, $\ell=e,\mu$, receives contributions from $H\to Z[\to \ell^+\ell^-] \gamma$ and a non-resonant contribution, both of which are loop-induced. We describe how one can separate these sub-processes in a…
