Yukawa corrections to Higgs production associated with two bottom quarks at the LHC
Abstract
Description
We investigate the leading one-loop Yukawa corrections to the process pp-> b anti-b H in the Standard Model. We find that the next-to-leading order correction to the cross section is small about -4% if the Higgs mass is 120GeV. However, the appearance of leading Landau singularity when $M_H > 2M_W$ can lead to a large correction at the next-to-next-to-leading order level for a Higgs mass around 160GeV.
