The effective coupling of the Higgs boson to gluons determines the production rate of the Higgs boson at the LHC and plays a crucial role to measure the Higgs properties. In this paper, we propose a novel method to extract the Higgs gluon…
The scattering amplitudes for Higgs + 5 partons are computed, with the Higgs boson produced via gluon fusion in the large top-quark mass limit. A parton-level analysis of Higgs + 3 jet production via gluon fusion and via weak-boson fusion…
At lowest order in perturbation theory, the production of a Higgs boson in association with dijets displays a strong correlation in the azimuthal angle between the dijets, induced by the CP-properties of the Higgs Boson coupling. However,…
We consider Higgs boson production through gluon--gluon fusion in hadron collisions, when a veto is applied on the transverse momenta of the accompanying hard jets. We compute the QCD corrections to this process at NLO and NNLO, and present…
In the Standard Model the Higgs coupling to gluons is almost entirely induced by top quark loops. We derive the logarithmic structure of Higgs production in association with two jets. Just like in the one-jet case the transverse momentum…
The gluon fusion component of Higgs-boson production in association with dijets is of particular interest because it both (a) allows for a study of the CP-structure of the Higgs-boson couplings to gluons, and (b) provides a background to…
The search for a Standard Model Higgs boson with the $H\to WW^\ast\to \ell\ell + E_{\rm T}^{\rm miss}$ decay and the application of a full-jet veto yields a strong sensitivity in the mass range $130<m_H<200$ GeV. One of the residual…
We present a detailed phenomenological analysis of the production of a Standard Model Higgs boson in association with up to three jets. The Higgs is produced via gluon fusion, which is an irreducible background to the vector boson fusion…
We present NLO QCD results for Higgs boson production in association with one jet, including anomalous Higgs-top and effective Higgs-gluon couplings within non-linear Effective Field Theory (HEFT), as well as the full top quark mass…
Searches for invisible Higgs decays in weak boson fusion are a well-known laboratory for jets and QCD studies. We present a series of results on tagging jets and central jet activity. First, precision analyses of the central jet activity…
Azimuthal angle correlations of the jets in Hjj events at the LHC provide a probe of the CP nature of Higgs couplings to gauge bosons. In weak boson fusion the HWW and HZZ couplings are tested. Gluon fusion processes probe the tensor…
The effective coupling of the Higgs boson to a gluon pair is one of the most important parameters to test the Standard Model and search for the new physics beyond. In this paper, we propose several new observables based on the jet energy…
From the LHC runs we know that, with increasing collider energy, weak-boson-fusion Higgs production dominates as an environment for precision measurements. We show how a future hadron collider performs for three challenging benchmark…
We study the production of two electro-weak vector bosons in association with a jet via gluon fusion. In particular we consider the production of $\gamma Zg$, $ZZg$ and $W^{+}W^{-}g$ at hadron colliders and compute their cross-sections.…
Far off-shell Higgs production in $H \rightarrow WW,ZZ$, is a particularly powerful probe of Higgs properties, allowing one to disentangle Higgs width and coupling information unavailable in on-shell rate measurements. These measurements…
We elucidate a new technique for estimating the production of multiple (at least two) hard jets in Higgs production via gluon-gluon fusion. The approach is based upon high energy factorisation, with the region of applicability extended by…
We review Higgs production at hadron colliders via vector-boson fusion and via gluon fusion, fully inclusively and in association with one and two jets. Then we address the issue of the measurement of the coupling of the Higgs to the vector…
Higgs boson production via weak boson fusion at the CERN Large Hadron Collider has the capability to determine the dominant CP nature of a Higgs boson, via the tensor structure of its coupling to weak bosons. This information is contained…
Higgs boson production in association with two tagging jets will be mediated by electroweak vector boson fusion and by gluon fusion. For the gluon fusion process, analysis of the azimuthal angle correlations of the two jets provides for a…
Possible anomalous couplings of the Higgs boson to vector bosons and fermions are studied using Higgs boson candidates decaying to a pair of photons. The study is based on proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV collected by the…
