    We present an analytical approach for the calculation of the top quark contribution to the two-loop electroweak 𝑔𝑔 → 𝐻𝐻 amplitude. The amplitude is considered in the forward limit, where the Mandelstam variable 𝑡 is small. We expand the amplitude at the level of the integrands and obtain good approximations for large parts of the phase space.

    We present a study of quark-initiated contributions to Higgs boson pair production. Our result include the NLO QCD corrections to the electroweak quark-antiquark channel and the interference between the electroweak and QCD quark-initiated amplitudes. We compute the two-loop amplitudes analytically using the method of differential equations, with boundary conditions obtained from the large-mass...

    After the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, the measurements of the Higgs self coupling is still a challenge for current and future experiments in particle physics.
    Higgs-boson pair production via gluon fusion is a loop-induced process. In order to increase the accuracy of the theoretical predictions for this process, higher-order corrections are necessary to reduce theoretical...

    One of the main goals for the HL-LHC is the measurement of the
    trilinear Higgs self-coupling, which can be accessed directly in
    processes producing two Higgs bosons simultaneously. Higher order
    perturbative corrections to gluon fusion, the dominant production
    channel, have a sizable impact on the extracted constraints. In
    particular, NLO electroweak corrections distort the...
