Semi-NLO production of Higgs bosons in the framework of kt-factorization using KMR unintegrated parton distributions

The cross-section for the production of the Standard Model Higgs boson has been calculated using a mixture of LO and NLO partonic diagrams and the unintegrated parton distribution functions (UPDF) of the Kimber–Martin–Ryskin (KMR) from the kt-factorization framework. The UPDF are prepared using the...
