A non-linear EFT description of $gg\to HH$ at NLO interfaced to POWHEG

13 Oct 2020  ·  Heinrich G., Jones S. P., Kerner M., Scyboz L. ·

We present the implementation of Higgs boson pair production in gluon fusion within a non-linear Effective Field Theory framework containing five anomalous couplings for this process. The code, available within the POWHEG-BOX-V2, includes full NLO QCD corrections with massive top quarks. All five couplings can be modified by the user. We show $m_{hh}$ distributions at seven benchmark points provided by an $m_{hh}$ shape analysis at NLO and showered $p_T^{hh}$ distributions resulting from an interface to Pythia-8 and Herwig-7.2.
