Anomalous couplings of vector bosons and the decay H → γγ: Dimensional regularization versus momentum cutoff

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

As an illustration of general principles, the W-boson loop contribution to the amplitude for the decay H → γγ is calculated within a specific model for the effective lagrangian describing the anomalous gauge boson couplings. Different approaches to the dependence of the result on the scale of new physics Λ are briefly discussed.
