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…
A Higgs boson in the intermediate mass range is considered. An effective Lagrangian approach is used in order to evaluate the top-induced QCD corrections of order $\alpha_s^3$ to the decay into light quarks and $O(\alpha_s^4)$ corrections…
We present the first determination of Higgs-boson decay to hadrons at the next-to-next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order of perturbative QCD in the limit of a heavy top quark and massless light flavours. This result has been obtained by…
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…
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…
We present the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) corrections for Higgs boson decays to hadronic final states at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N$^3$LO) in the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$. In particular, we consider the Higgs…
In this letter we present the results of the exact computation of contributions to the Higgs boson decay into bottom quarks that are proportional to the top Yukawa coupling. Our computation demonstrates that approximate results already…
We present predictions for the Higgs boson decay into four bottom quarks in the standard model and via light exotic scalars retaining full bottom-quark mass dependence. In the SM the decay can be induced either by the Yukawa couplings of…
The process $H \to J/\psi + \gamma$, where $H$ is the Higgs particle, provides a way to probe the size and the sign of the Higgs-charm coupling. In order to improve the theoretical control of the decay rate, we compute order $v^4$…
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…
Corrections of order $\alpha_s^4$ for the axial singlet contributions for the decay rates of the $Z$-boson into hadrons are evaluated in the limit of the heavy top quark mass. Combined with recently finished ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^4)$…
The Higgs boson decay to massive bottom quarks has the largest branching ratio. The decay is mainly induced by the bottom-quark Yukawa coupling with the decay rate calculated up to $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^4)$ assuming the massless final-state…
Standard-Model Higgs bosons are dominantly produced via the gluon-fusion mechanism $gg \to H$ at the LHC, i.e. in a loop-mediated process with top loops providing the dominant contribution. For the measured Higgs boson mass of $\sim 125$…
Quark mass effects in ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^2)$ QCD corrections to the decay rates of intermediate Higgs bosons are studied. The total hadronic rate and the partial decay rate into bottom quarks are analyzed for the Standard (scalar) Higgs…
The Higgs boson couplings to bottom and top quarks have been measured and agree well with the Standard Model predictions. Decays to lighter quarks and gluons, however, remain elusive. Observing these decays is essential to complete the…
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…
Performing a fit to all publicly available data, we analyze the extent to which the latest results from the LHC and Tevatron constrain the couplings of the Higgs boson-like state at ~ 125 GeV. To this end we assume that only Standard Model…
Recent developments in perturbative QCD, leading to the beta function in five-loop approximation are presented. In a first step the two most important decay modes of the Higgs boson are discussed: decays into a pair of gluons and,…
The Higgs boson decay to a massive bottom quark pair provides the dominant contribution to the Higgs boson width. We present an exact result for such a decay induced by the bottom quark Yukawa coupling with next-to-next-to-leading order…
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,…
