The radiative decay width of a heavy Higgs boson $H \rightarrow W^+W^-\gamma$ for a {\it hard} photon is calculated in the Standard Model and its extension with anomalous $\gamma WW$ couplings. Its dependence on the Higgs mass, the two unknown anomalous couplings, and the photon energy cutoff are studied in detail. We show that this radiative decay of a heavy Higgs is not very sensitive to a wide range of the anomalous couplings compared to the Standard Model result.

Radiative Signature of New Scalar Boson Decays in the $m_{\ell \ell \gamma}$ Spectrum at the LHC
Reanalysis of CMS ttγ data shows a 2.7σ localized excess in m_ℓℓγ at 152 GeV compatible with S → W⁺W⁻γ from a narrow scalar, yielding a ratio σ(S → W⁺W⁻γ)/σ(S → W⁺W⁻) = (2.14 ± 0.77)%.
