Higgs decay into two leptons and a photon revisited

Abstract

I present new results for the Standard-Model predictions of the differential decay rates for $H\to {\ell }^{+}{\ell }^{-}\gamma$, where $\ell =e,\mu$, and the forward-backward asymmetries defined in terms of the flight direction of the photon corresponding to the lepton momenta. The results dependend on the cuts on energies and invariant masses of the final state particles. For standard choices of these cuts the branching ratios $B(H\to e\bar{e}\gamma )=5.8\cdot 10^{-5}$ and $B(H\to \mu \bar{\mu }\gamma )=6.4\cdot 10^{-5}$ as well as the forward-backward asymmetries ${\mathcal{A}}_{\text{FB}}^{(e)}=0.343$ and ${\mathcal{A}}_{\text{FB}}^{(\mu )}=0.255$ have been found.
