SM Higgs production cross sections at √s = 13, 14 and 27 TeV (update in CERN HL-LHC YR 2019)

Cross sections are computed for mH=125.09 GeV by using the YR4 input parameters. More details can be found on the LHCHXSWG-INT-2019-0xx note and in Sec. 2.2 of the HL-HE report.

Gluon fusion

  • Cross sections are calculated at N3LO QCD and NLO EW accuracy using the program iHixs.

    • √s (TeV) σ +δ(theory) -δ(theory) ±δ(PDF) +δ(αs) -δ(αs)
    13 48.61 pb 4.27% 6.49% 1.85% 2.59% 2.62%
    14 54.72 pb 4.28% 6.46% 1.85% 2.60% 2.62%
    27 146.65 pb 4.53% 6.43% 1.95% 2.69% 2.64%

    Vector boson fusion

  • Cross sections are calculated at NNLO QCD with the program proVBFH while the EW and photon contributions have been computed at NLO with HAWK. The reference cross section is σ = σDIS*(1+deltaELWK)+σγ

    • √s (TeV) σ +δ(scale) -δ(scale) ΔPDF+αs σDIS δELWK σγ
    13 3766 fb 0.43% 0.33% ±2.1% 3939 fb -5.3% 35.3 fb
    14 4260 fb 0.45% 0.34% ±2.1% 4460 fb -5.4% 40.7 fb
    27 11838 fb 0.66% 0.36% ±2.1% 12483 fb -6.2% 129 fb

    Theoretical uncertainties of integrated cross sections originating from unknown higher-order EW effects can be estimated by ΔEW = max{0.5%, δ2EW, σγ/σVBF}

    VH production

  • Cross sections are calculated at NNLO QCD and NLO EW with the program HAWK. The reference results include the photon contribution σγ where appropriate
