Description

We argue that the leading-order subprocess for Higgs-boson production in association with bottom quarks is b bar b→H. This process is an important source of Higgs bosons with enhanced Yukawa coupling to bottom quarks. We calculate the corrections to this cross section at next-to-leading-order in 1/ln(mH/mb) and αs and at next-to-next-to-leading order in 1/ln(mH/mb). copyright 1999 The American Physical Society
