We present the full next-to-leading order corrected differential distributions d 2 σ/dpT /dy, dσ/dpT and dσ/dy for the semi-inclusive process p + p → H + ′ X ′ . Here X denotes the inclusive hadronic state and pT and y are the transverse momentum and rapidity of the Higgs-boson H respectively. All QCD partonic subprocesses have been included. The computation is carried out in the limit that the top-quark mass mt → ∞ which is a very good approximation as long as mH, pT < 200 GeV. Our calculations reveal √

The Higgs-boson lineshape☆ (2011, background): “8 Conclusions In the last two decades many theoretical studies lead to improved estimates of the SM Higgs boson total cross section at hadron colliders [75,76,51,77,78,79,80,81] (including electroweak NLO corrections [82,83]) 25”
Les Houches 2013: Physics at TeV Colliders: Standard Model Working Group Report (2014, background): “The one-loop matrix elements are taken from [373,374], [375,376] and [44,356], respectively.”
NLO Higgs boson production via vector-boson fusion matched with shower in POWHEG (2009, methodology): “In the past few years, the next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to Higgs boson production in VBF have become available [10, 11, 12] and implemented in fully-flexible partonic Monte Carlo programs (see, for example, the VBFNLO package [13] and the MCFM code [14]).”
Higgs production with a central jet veto at NNLL+NNLO (2010, unknown): “Theoretically, one can also study the Higgs production as a function of the Higgs transverse momentum, pT , both in fixed-order perturbation theory for large p H T [40–43] and with a resummation of logarithms of pT at small p H T [44–51].”
Factorization at the LHC: From PDFs to Initial State Jets (Ph.D. thesis) (2009, background): “Theoretically, one can also study the Higgs production as a function of the Higgs transverse momentum, pT , both in fixed-order perturbation theory for large p H T [18, 86, 105, 154] and with a resummation of logarithms of pT at small p H T [25, 50, 55, 56, 76, 131, 142].”
Transverse-momentum resummation: Higgs boson production at the Tevatron and the LHC (2011, methodology): “In this region, the QCD radiative corrections are known up to NLO [19–21].”
NLO Higgs boson production plus one and two jets using the POWHEG BOX, MadGraph4 and MCFM (2012, background): “In this context, the Higgs boson + 2 jet process enters principally as an irreducible background for the vector boson fusion (VBF) process [6, 7, 8].”
NNLO QCD corrections to Higgs boson production at large transverse momentum (2016, background): “Including the full top quark mass dependence, the transverse momentum distribution is known only to LO [16, 17], while NLO corrections were derived for infinite top quark mass [18, 19].”
