HNNLO: a Monte Carlo program to compute Higgs boson production at hadron colliders

Abstract

We consider Higgs boson production through gluon--gluon fusion in hadron collisions. We present a numerical program that computes the cross section up to NNLO in QCD perturbation theory. The program includes the decay modes H->gamma-gamma, H->WW->lnulnu, H->ZZ->4leptons, and allows the user to apply arbitrary cuts on the momenta of the partons and of the photons or leptons that are produced in the final state.
