Top anomalous magnetic moment and the two photon decay of Higgs

Abstract

We compute the dependence of the Higgs to two-photon decay rate $\hat{I}{“}_{h\to {\hat{I}}^3{\hat{I}}^3}$ on the top quark gyromagnetic factor $g_t$ in the heavy top limit and evaluate the expected change for one-loop SM correction to $g_t$. Our results are general and allow consideration of further modifications of $g_t$ and we predict the resultant $\hat{I}{“}_{h\to {\hat{I}}^3{\hat{I}}^3}$.
