Higgs Pair Production at the LHC in Models with Universal Extra Dimensions

Understand

In this letter we study the process of gluon fusion into a pair of Higgs bosons in a model with one universal extra dimension.

• We find that the contributions from the extra top quark Kaluza-Klein excitations lead to a Higgs pair production cross section at the LHC that can be significantly altered compared to the Standard Model value for small values of the compactification scale.
