Associated Higgs-W-boson production at hadron colliders : a fully exclusive QCD calculation at NNLO / G. Ferrera, M. Grazzini, F. Tramontano. - In: PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS. - ISSN 0031-9007. - 107:15(2011 Oct 07), pp. 152003.152003.1-152003.152003.4.
Abstract:
We consider QCD radiative corrections to Standard Model Higgs boson production in association with a W boson in hadron collisions. We present a fully exclusive calculation up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD perturbation theory. To perform this NNLO computation, we use a recently proposed version of the subtraction formalism. Our calculation includes finite-width effects, the leptonic decay of the W boson with its spin correlations, and the decay of the Higgs boson into a bbbar pair. We present selected numerical results at the Tevatron and the LHC.
