Abstract
We present the total cross sections at next-to-next-to-leading order in the strong coupling for Higgs boson production via weak-boson fusion. Our results are obtained via the structure function approach, which builds upon the approximate, though very accurate, factorization of the QCD corrections between the two quark lines. The theoretical uncertainty on the total cross sections at the LHC from higher order corrections and the parton distribution uncertainties are estimated at the 2% level each for a wide range of Higgs boson masses.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
