We present predictions for the SM-Higgs-pair production channels of relevance at the LHC: gluon-gluon fusion, VBF, and top-pair, W, Z and single-top associated production. All these results are at the NLO accuracy in QCD, and matched to parton showers by means of the MC@NLO method; hence, they are fully differential. With the exception of the gluon-gluon fusion process, for which a special treatment is needed in order to improve upon the infinite-top-mass limit, our predictions are obtained in a fully automatic way within the publicly available MadGraph5_aMC@NLO framework. We show that for all channels in general, and for gluon-gluon fusion and top-pair associated production in particular, NLO corrections reduce the theoretical uncertainties, and are needed in order to arrive at reliable predictions for total rates as well as for distributions.

    hep-ph 2026-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    NNLO+PS matching for gluon-fusion Higgs pair production is implemented in MiNNLOPS with approximate top-mass effects, validated against fixed-order NNLO and compared to GENEVA, with results for decay channels and tril...

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    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%.

    No excess is observed; the 95% CL upper limit on nonresonant HHH→6b is 44 fb (588×SM), with κ3 constrained to −7.4 < κ3 < 12.4 (κ4=1) and κ4 to −177 < κ4 < 185 (κ3=1).

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    At the HL-LHC, t-tbar + Higgs pair production could constrain four non-standard Higgs couplings, giving first projected limits for the double top-Higgs and gluon-Higgs couplings.

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    First NNLO+parton-shower simulation of double Higgs production in GENEVA that includes approximate finite top-quark mass corrections (FTapprox), validated against MATRIX.

    Full NLO QCD predictions for pp -> hhjj production in VBF with HEFT couplings cλ, cV, c2V, including non-factorising and Higgs-strahlung diagrams, show that some allowed coupling combinations reshape key observables.

    hep-ph 2025-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    New and extended Monte Carlo tools for vector-boson-fusion double-Higgs production now support anomalous Higgs couplings, and show that NLO-plus-shower predictions approximate NNLO results while non-factorizable QCD c...

  8. Deconstructing resonant Higgs pair production at the LHC: effects of coloured and neutral scalars in the NMSSM test case

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the NMSSM, interference between heavy Higgs resonances, SM top loops and stop loops can strongly distort the di-Higgs invariant mass spectrum, and a diagram-by-diagram decomposition makes these distortions interpretable.

  9. Improved analysis of non-resonant Higgs boson pair production in the $b\bar{b}\tau^+\tau^-$ final state with $196$ fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV and 13.6 TeV with the ATLAS detector

    ATLAS finds μ_HH = 2.6^{+1.4}_{-1.0} in bbττ with Run 2+3 data, 2.6σ over background-only, and first 3.5σ evidence for ZH in this final state.
