Electroweak Corrections to Higgs to γγ and W^+W^- in the SMEFT
read the original abstract
Higgs decays to gauge boson pairs are a crucial ingredient in the study of Higgs properties, with the decay $H\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$ being particularly sensitive to new physics effects. Assuming all potential new physics occurs at energies much above the weak scale, deviations from Standard Model predictions can be parameterized in terms of the coefficients of an effective field theory (SMEFT). When experimental limits on the SMEFT coefficients reach an accuracy of a few percent, predictions must be done beyond the lowest order in the SMEFT in order to match theory and experimental accuracy. This paper completes a program of computing the one-loop electroweak SMEFT corrections to $H\rightarrow VV^\prime$, $V=W^\pm,Z,\gamma$. The calculation of the real contribution to $H\rightarrow W^+W^-\gamma$ is performed by mapping two-loop amplitudes to the $3-$ body phase space.
