This result gives us a value of the $O(N_f \\alpha _s^2)$ radiative correction to the inclusive decay rate $ H \\to f_1\\bar f_1$. Using this result in the framework of the Brodsky-Mackenzie-Lepage scheme, we discuss the scale setting in the one-loop QCD correction to the decay width $ H \\to f_1\\bar f_1$ for arbitrary relation between the Higgs boson and fermion masses.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1995-12-10T14:59:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14.80.Bn", "12.38.Bx" ], "keywords": [ "decay width", "massive fermions", "light fermion pair", "one-loop qcd correction", "higgs boson mass" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
