Higgs Bosons from Two-Gluon Annihilation in Proton-Proton Collisions

Abstract

We estimate the cross section for Higgs-boson production in proton-proton collisions. We find that most of the cross section comes from a two-gluon annihilation process, in which the gluons couple to Higgs bosons via heavy-quark loops.
