We discuss the sources of uncertainty in calculations of the partial widths of the Higgs boson within the Standard Model. The uncertainties come from two sources: the truncation of perturbation theory and the uncertainties in input…
Constraints are set on the Higgs boson decay width, Gamma_H, using off-shell production and decay to ZZ in the four-lepton (4l), or two-lepton-two-neutrino (2l2nu) final states. The analysis is based on the data collected in 2012 by the CMS…
We calculate the supersymmetric QCD corrections in order $\alpha_s$ to the the widths of the Higgs boson decays $H^+ \to \st \bar\sb$ and $H^0, A^0 \to \st \bar\st, \sb \bar\sb$ in the on--shell scheme within the Minimal Supersymmetric…
$B_c$ production rate in Higgs boson decays is evaluated in NRQCD framework. Given Higgs total decay width is about $4.20~MeV$ and the vector $B^*_c$ meson decays completely to the ground state, we find that the branching fraction of $B_c$…
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 summarize the dominant decay modes of the neutral and charged Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. While two--body decays are in general dominating, the branching ratios for three--body decays of…
We calculate the dominant three body Higgs decays, $H \to W^+W^-(Z^0, \gamma)$ and $H \to t\overline{t}(Z^0,\gamma ,g)$, in the Standard Model. We find that the branching ratios of these decays are of the order of few percent for large…
A search for a Higgs boson in the decay channel ${\rm H} \rightarrow {\rm ZZ}^{(*)}$ with each Z boson decaying to an electron or muon pair is presented using pp collisions from the LHC at $\sqrt s$ = 7 TeV. The data analyzed correspond to…
We study the Higgs boson $(h)$ decay to two light jets at the 14 TeV High-Luminosity-LHC (HL-LHC), where a light jet ($j$) represents any non-flavor tagged jet from the observational point of view. The decay mode $h\to gg$ is chosen as the…
The rare decay B_s -> mu^+ mu^- provides an important constraint on possible deviations from the Standard Model in b-s-l-l interactions. The present weighted average of its branching ratio measurements amounts to (3.34 \pm 0.27) x 10^-9,…
We consider the branching ratio for the process $t \to c \gamma$ in the context of the General Two Higgs Doublet Model type III. We find that taking into account reasonable values for the parameter $\tan \beta$ is possible to get values of…
In a recent publication [6], the Belle collaboration updated their analysis of the inclusive weak radiative B-meson decay, including the full dataset of (772 +_ 11) x 10^6 BBbar pairs. Their result for the branching ratio is now below the…
The investigation of the properties of a Higgs boson, especially a test of the predicted linear dependence of the branching ratios on the mass of the final state, is currently one of the most compelling arguments for building a linear…
A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying into a pair of tau leptons is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample of proton-proton collisions collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated…
We perform a precise calculation of the decay rate of the electroweak vacuum in the standard model as well as in models beyond the standard model. We use a recently-developed technique to calculate the decay rate of a false vacuum, which…
Precise measurement of the Higgs boson properties is an important issue of the International Linear Collider (ILC) experiment to verify the particles mass generation mechanism that the coupling strength between the Higgs boson and the…
In view of the extreme smallness of $\Delta S = 2$ transitions of $B$ meson in the Standard Model, we consider their occurence in several extensions of it. Thus, we analyze the three - body $B^- \to K^- K^- \pi^+$ and two - body $B^- \to…
We calculate the large top quark mass expansions for the H -> bb_bar decay rate in the order (alpha_s)^2 and for the H -> gluons decay rate in the order (alpha_s)^3. The obtained expansions rapidly converge in the region of their validity,…
