The Higgs boson H of the Standard Model can be searched for in the channels p pbar / pp -> t tbar H + X at the Tevatron and the LHC. The cross sections for these processes and the final-state distributions of the Higgs boson and top quarks are presented at next-to-leading order QCD. To calculate these QCD corrections, a special calculational technique for pentagon diagrams has been developed and the dipole subtraction formalism has been adopted for massive particles. The impact of the corrections on the total cross sections is characterized by K factors, the ratios of the cross sections in next-to-leading order over leading order QCD. At the central scale mu_0 = (2 m_t + M_H)/2 the K factors are found to be slightly below unity for the Tevatron (K \sim 0.8) and slightly above unity for the LHC (K \sim 1.2). Including the corrections significantly stabilizes the theoretical predictions for total cross sections and for the distributions in rapidity and transverse momentum of the Higgs boson and top quarks.

  1. Cross-section measurements of boosted Higgs boson production in final states with pairs of hadronically decaying $\tau$-leptons with the ATLAS experiment

    hep-ex 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    ATLAS reports the first boosted H→ττ cross-section measurements for Higgs pT > 300 GeV, with an observed (expected) significance of 3.8 (3.3) standard deviations, consistent with the Standard Model.

  2. Top-associated Higgs-boson production using perturbative fragmentation functions at next-to-leading-order

    hep-ph 2026-05 conditional novelty 6.0

    Perturbative fragmentation functions reproduce the leading top-mass dependence of the exact NLO ttH cross section in the hybrid prescription at LHC energies.

  3. Probing the Higgs-top Yukawa interaction in the $t\bar{t}H$ and $tH$ processes using $H\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$ with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    ATLAS measures ttH cross section times BR(H→γγ) at 1.13 SM with 164 fb⁻¹ at 13.6 TeV, sets tH limit at 6.2 SM, and combined with prior data excludes |α|>38° and purely CP-odd coupling at 5.8σ.

  4. Top-associated Higgs-boson production using perturbative fragmentation functions at next-to-leading-order

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Perturbative fragmentation functions approximate ttH production at NLO and yield reliable results in the hybrid prescription at LHC energies.

  5. Measurements of the Higgs boson production, fiducial and differential cross-sections in the four lepton decay channel using 164 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13.6 TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Higgs boson cross-section in H→4ℓ measured as 3.65 fb with new LHC data, consistent with SM expectation of 3.68 fb and signal strength 0.99±0.13.

  6. Measurements of the Higgs boson production, fiducial and differential cross-sections in the four lepton decay channel using 164 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13.6 TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2026-05 accept novelty 3.0

    ATLAS measures the fiducial cross-section for H to four leptons as 3.65 fb matching the SM prediction of 3.68 fb, with signal strength 0.99 and differential distributions all consistent with expectations.
