Abstract

The production of a pair of \(J{\text{/}}\Psi \) and \(\Upsilon \) mesons in Higgs boson (H) decay is studied on the basis of the perturbative Standard Model and a relativistic quark model. We calculate relativistic corrections in the decay amplitudes and decay widths connected with the relative motion of heavy quarks.
