We present in analytic form the O(alpha_s^5) correction to the H->gg partial width of the standard-model Higgs boson with intermediate mass M_H<2M_t. Its knowledge is useful because the O(alpha_s^4) correction is sizeable (around 20%). For…

We consider the decay of an intermediate mass Higgs boson into hadrons up to order O(\alpha_s^3). The results from the diagrams containing only light degrees of freedom were recently computed in a previous work by K.G. Ch. (Phys. Lett. B…
The two--loop ${\cal O}(\alpha_s G_F m_t^2)$ corrections to the $b\bar b$ decay rate of the Standard Model Higgs boson as well as its production via $e^+e^- \to ZH$ will be presented. These QCD corrections are obtained by using a low-energy…
We compute the decay rate of the Standard Model Higgs boson to bottom quarks to order $\alpha\alpha_s$. We apply the optical theorem and calculate the imaginary part of three-loop corrections to the Higgs boson propagator using asymptotic…
QCD corrections to the electroweak one-loop result for the partial width $\Gamma(H\rightarrow b\bar{b})$ are studied. For the decay channel into bottom quarks the rate is affected by a virtual top quark through electroweak interactions. The…
We present an analytical calculation of the next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to the partial decay width $H\to gg$ for a Higgs boson in the intermediate mass range. We apply an asymptotic expansion for $M_H\ll 2M_t$ and compute…
We present the two-loop ${\cal O}(\alpha_sG_Fm_t^2)$ correction to the $b\bar b$ decay rate of the Stan\-dard-Model Higgs boson, assuming that the $t$ quark is much heavier than the Higgs boson. Apart from the universal correction connected…
Three-loop corrections to the scalar and pseudo-scalar current correlator are calculated. By applying the large momentum expansion mass terms up to order (m^2/q^2)^4 are evaluated analytically. As an application O(\alpha_s^2) corrections to…
This note is devoted to the calculation of the two-loop $O(G_F {M_H}^2)$ radiative corrections to the Higgs decay width $H \to \gamma \gamma $ for large values of the Higgs boson mass $M_H$ within the Minimal Standard Model. The use of the…
In supersymmetric models with minimal particle content and without left-right squark mixing, the conventional wisdom is that the 125.6 GeV Higgs boson mass implies top squark masses of O(10) TeV, far beyond the reach of colliders. This…
We compute four-loop corrections to the hadronic decay of the Standard Model Higgs boson which are induced by effective couplings to bottom quarks and gluons, mediated by the top quark. Our numerical results are comparable in size to the…
We present the analytical expressions for the contributions of the order $O(\bar{\alpha}~\bar{\alpha}_s)$ and $O(\bar{\alpha}^2)$ corrections to the decay width of the Standard Model Higgs boson into the $\bar{b}b$-pair. The numerical value…
Low- and intermediate mass Higgs bosons decay preferably into fermion pairs. The one-loop electroweak corrections to the respective decay rates are dominated by a flavour-independent term of ${\cal O}(G_Fm_t^2)$. We calculate the two-loop…
The Standard-Model Higgs boson with mass $ M_H >> 2M_Z $ decays almost exclusively to pairs of $W$ and $Z$ bosons. We calculate the dominant two-loop corrections of $ O( G_F^2 M_H^4 )$ to the partial widths of these decays. In the…
The ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ QCD corrections to the three-body decay width of the charged Higgs $\Gamma$($H^+\to W^+b\bar{b}$) are discussed in the MSSM model. Our calculations indicate that the standard QCD corrections to the three-body decay…
