NNLO QCD predictions for jet observables in ZH production at electron-positron colliders
Abstract
A bstract We present precise predictions for a variety of jet observables in ZH production at electron-positron colliders, with the Z boson decaying leptonically and the Higgs boson decaying into two hadronic jets, up to NNLO in perturbative QCD. We consider a Higgs boson decaying into bottom (charm) quark pairs via Yukawa interaction and into gluons via an effective vertex in the limit of infinite top quark mass. We present results for the two decay modes separately, highlighting relevant differences in the differential distributions, and for the sum of all decay channels, including a comparison between different choices of the Durham (or k T ) jet resolution parameter.
