| Abstract | In this note we study the inclusive production of a Higgs boson with large transverse momentum. We provide a recommendation for the inclusive cross section based on a combination of state of the art QCD predictions for the gluon-fusion and vector-boson-fusion channels. Moreover, we compare such predictions to those obtained with commonly used event generators. We observe that the description of the considered kinematic regime provided by these tools is in good agreement with state of the art QCD predictions. |
