Production of a Higgs boson accompanied by two jets via gluon fusion - art. no. 122001

Real-emission corrections to gg --> H, which lead to H + 2 jet events, are calculated at order alpha (4)(s). Contributions include top-quark triangles , boxes, and pentagon diagrams and are evaluated analytically for arbitrary top mass m(t). This new source of H + 2 jet events is compared to the weak -boson fusion cross section for a range of Higgs boson masses. The heavy to p-mass approximation appears to work well for intermediate Higgs-boson mass es, provided that the transverse momenta of the final-state partons are sma ller than the top-quark mass.
