On the NLO QCD corrections to gluon-initiated ZH production

Abstract: We compute the QCD corrections at next-to-leading order for the process gg → ZH, including both the virtual two-loop terms and real-emission contributions. The two-loop box diagrams in the virtual corrections are approximated analytically over the complete phase space, combining the results of an expansion in the limit of small transverse momentum and an expansion in the regime of high energy. We obtain both inclusive and differential results for the cross section. We find that the NLO QCD corrections are of t… Show more

“…However, the resummation gives significant reduction of the conventional 7-point scale uncertainties to as small as 0.1% in the high invariant mass region Q ≥ 1500 GeV of V H production processes. For the associated Higgs production with a Z boson, the gluon fusion channel and top-loop contributions from NNLO onwards are also important [81][82][83][84][85][86][87] at the accuracy that we considered here. We have included these contributions in our inclusive total production cross-sections for V H processes.…”

“…The higher order NLO corrections to this gluon fusion channel which contribute at O(a 3 S ) level appear at the same order as the N 3 LO of DY type corrections, and these NLO corrections to the gluon fusion channel in the effective theory [80] have been computed already. It is worth noting that in the recent past, there has been a significant amount of progress towards the computation of the NLO corrections to this gluon fusion process considering the finite top quark mass effects [81][82][83][84][85][86][87]. The top-loop contributions are available at a 2 S level [79] and are implemented in vh@nnlo 2.1 code.…”

“…A similar approach to the one proposed in this paper has been discussed in Refs. [18,19] where the analytic small p T and high-energy expansions are "merged". For both expansions Padé approximations are constructed, however, only to low order ([1/1] and [6/6], respectively).…”

“…Results for the virtual corrections are also known in an expansion around small-𝑝 𝑇 (to 𝑝 4 𝑇 ) [17] and have been combined with the high-energy results [18], a NLO result based on this combination was recently presented in Ref. [19].…”
