abstract

We consider the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to Higgs boson pair production, using our recent calculation of the form factors in the high-energy limit. We compute the virtual corrections to the partonic cross section, applying Pad\'e approximations to extend the range of validity of the high-energy expansion. This enables us to compare to the exact numerical calculation in a significant part of the phase space and allows us to extend the virtual matrix element grid, based on the exact numerical calculation, to larger values of the (partonic) transverse momentum of the Higgs boson, which is important for boosted Higgs studies. Improved predictions for hadron colliders with centre-of-mass energies of $14\ \mathrm{TeV}$ and $100\ \mathrm{TeV}$ are presented. The updated grid is made publicly available.

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 7.0

    First fully differential N3LO QCD predictions for gg->hh in the heavy-top limit, with NLO top-mass effects added; heavy-top scale uncertainty shrinks about 3x, to roughly 1-3%.

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0

    The paper provides fast, analytic two-loop virtual QCD corrections for gluon-induced ZH and off-shell ZZ production with full top-quark mass dependence, validated against numerical results at the sub-percent level.
