Heavy-quark mass effects in Higgs boson production at the LHC
read the original abstract
We study the impact of heavy-quark masses in Higgs boson production through gluon fusion at the LHC. We extend previous computations of the fully differential cross section and of the transverse momentum spectrum of the Higgs boson by taking into account the finite top- and bottom-quark masses up to O(alpha_S^3). We also discuss the issues arising when the heavy-quark mass is much smaller than the Higgs mass. Our results are implemented in updated versions of the HNNLO and HRes numerical programs.

Search for a new heavy scalar resonance decaying to a pair of Z bosons in the four-lepton final state in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV
No significant excess observed in CMS four-lepton data; 95% CL upper limits set on heavy scalar resonance production cross section times BR(ZZ) ranging 0.05-0.1 pb at low mass to 0 pb at high mass.
