We present the results of a detailed simulation study of Higgs boson production via vector boson fusion (VBF) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the presence of anomalous couplings. The analysis utilizes the Herwig event generator interfaced with VBFNLO, employing a multi-jet merging scheme that combines NLO accurate matrix elements for Higgs plus 2- and 3-jet multiplicities with LO accurate matrix elements for Higgs plus 4-jet multiplicities. We investigate both matching and merging setups to consistently combine these hard scattering processes with QCD parton showers. Finally, we demonstrate the robustness of azimuthal angle observables against QCD radiative corrections across these frameworks.
In this contribution, the higher-order QCD and electroweak corrections to Standard Model Higgs boson pair production via the gluon-fusion mechanism, $gg\to hh$, are summarized and the different sources of theoretical uncertainty are assessed. The discussion includes finite top quark mass effects, matching to parton sho...

We study the impact of higher-order QCD corrections on Higgs production via weak-boson fusion with subsequent decays of the Higgs boson to bottom-quark pairs. We consider realistic fiducial cuts and observe large corrections in a fixed-order calculation. They arise from the interplay of the particular fiducial cuts con...
We consider one-loop QCD corrections to Higgs-boson production via vector-boson fusion at hadron colliders. As an input for future exact NNLO computations, we derive the one-loop helicity amplitudes to higher orders in the dimensional regulator. We present a direct calculation of the amplitudes with spinor-helicity tec...

We present the first direct computation of the two-loop QCD virtual corrections to the production of a top-antitop quark pair in association with a Higgs boson ($t\bar{t}H$) at the LHC. We focus on the quark-antiquark channel and perform the calculation in the generalised leading-colour approximation. We combine state-...
We study the potential of very high-energy lepton colliders to probe effective operators affecting the loop-induced Higgs boson decays $h\to \gamma\gamma$ and $h\to Z\gamma$, providing constraints complementary to Higgs coupling measurements at the Large Hadron Collider. In particular, we consider processes with two an...

We present a complete calculation of the next-to-leading order (NLO) electroweak corrections to the loop-induced gluon-fusion process $gg\to\gamma\gamma$ at the LHC, including the full third-generation quark and the Higgs boson contributions for the first time. To efficiently evaluate the large number of multi-scale tw...
