โฆ Synopsis
We discuss the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) corrections to the total cross section for (pseudo-) scalar Higgs boson production. The computation is carried out in the effective Lagrangian approach which emerges from the standard model by taking the limit mt โ โ where mt denotes the mass of the top quark.

We consider Higgs boson production, through gluon fusion, in hadron collisions at the Tevatron and the LHC. We briefly summarize the calculations of QCD radiative corrections to this process. We show theoretical predictions for the total cross section and the transverse-momentum (qT ) distribution o
