Abstract:
The virtual corrections to the production cross section of a Standard Model Higgs boson are computed up to order \alpha_s^4. Using an effective Lagrangian for the limit M_t -> \infty, we evaluate the relevant massless two-loop vertex diagrams by mapping them onto three-loop two-point functions, following a method recently introduced by Baikov and Smirnov. As a result, we find a gauge-invariant contribution to the total Higgs production cross section at NNLO.- gluon gluon: fusion
- Higgs particle: hadroproduction
- effective Lagrangian
- mass: top
- channel cross section: correction
- quantum chromodynamics
- perturbation theory: higher-order
- invariance: gauge
- form factor: momentum transfer
- form factor: ratio
