Abstract

We present the cross-section for the threshold production of the Higgs boson at hadron-colliders at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N³LO) in perturbative QCD. Furthermore, we present an analytic expression for the partonic cross-section at threshold and the impact of these corrections on the numerical estimates for the hadronic cross-section at the LHC. With this result we achieve a major milestone towards a complete evaluation of the cross-section at N³LO which will reduce the theoretical uncertainty in the determination of the strengths of the Higgs boson interactions.

Higgs boson gluon-fusion production beyond threshold in N³LO QCD

Journal Article Anastasiou, Charalampos ; Duhr, Claude ; Dulat, Falko ; ... - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

In this study, we compute the gluon fusion Higgs boson cross-section at N³LO through the second term in the threshold expansion. This calculation constitutes a major milestone towards the full N³LO cross section. Our result has the best formal accuracy in the threshold expansion currently available, and includes contributions from collinear regions besides subleading corrections from soft and hard regions, as well as certain logarithmically enhanced contributions for general kinematics. We use our results to perform a critical appraisal of the validity of the threshold approximation at N³LO in perturbative QCD.

Differential Higgs production at N³LO beyond threshold

Journal Article Dulat, Falko ; Mistlberger, Bernhard ; Pelloni, Andrea - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

We present several key steps towards the computation of differential Higgs boson cross sections at N³LO in perturbative QCD. Specifically, we work in the framework of Higgs-differential cross sections that allows to compute precise predictions for realistic LHC observables. We demonstrate how to perform an expansion of the analytic N³LO coefficient functions around the production threshold of the Higgs boson. Our framework allows us to compute to arbitrarily high order in the threshold expansion and we explicitly obtain the first two expansion coefficients in analytic form. Furthermore, we assess the phenomenological viability of threshold expansions for differential distributions. We findmore »« less

Precision predictions at $N^{3} LO$ for the Higgs boson rapidity distribution at the LHC

Journal Article Dulat, Falko ; Mistlberger, Bernhard ; Pelloni, Andrea - Physical Review. D.

We present precise predictions for the Higgs boson rapidity distribution at the LHC in the gluon fusion production mode. Our approach relies on the fully analytic computation of six terms in a systematic expansion of the partonic differential cross section around the production threshold of the Higgs boson at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N³LO) in QCD perturbation theory. As a result, we observe a mild correction compared to the previous perturbative order and a significant reduction of the dependence of the cross section on the perturbative scale throughout the entire rapidity range.

Higgs Boson Production in Bottom-Quark Fusion to Third Order in the Strong Coupling

Journal Article Duhr, Claude ; Dulat, Falko ; Mistlberger, Bernhard - Physical Review Letters

We present the inclusive cross section at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N³LO) in perturbative QCD for the production of a Higgs boson via bottom-quark fusion. We employ the five-flavor scheme, treating the bottom quark as a massless parton while retaining a nonvanishing Yukawa coupling to the Higgs boson. We find that the dependence of the hadronic cross section on the renormalization and factorization scales is substantially reduced. For judicious choices of the scales the perturbative expansion of the cross section shows a convergent behavior. We present results for the N³LO cross section at various collider energies. In comparison to the cross sectionmore »« less
