Abstract

We compute the two-loop BSM contributions to the h\longrightarrow γγ decay width in the aligned THDM. We adopt the simplifying assumptions of vanishing EW gauge couplings and vanishing mass of the SM-like Higgs boson, which allow us to exploit a low-energy theorem connecting the hγγ amplitude to the derivative of the photon self-energy w.r.t. the Higgs field. We briefly discuss the numerical impact of the newly-computed contributions, showing that they may be required for a precise determination of Γ[h→ γγ] in scenarios where the quartic Higgs couplings are large.
