Description
Higgs strahlung off W/Z bosons at Tevatron and the LHC, ppbar/pp -> WH/ZH,
is an important process class for discovering a light Higgs boson. In the
talk, first results on electroweak (and QCD) corrections for these
reactions are shown that support the full differential information
and the decays of the W/Z bosons, i.e. the actually considered
processes are ppbar/pp -> l nu H / l l H. The precise knowledge
of differential distributions is particularly important in view
of the fact that reconstructing Higgs strahlung at the LHC has to
proceed via the investigation of "fat b jets" of highly boosted
Higgs bosons and that electroweak corrections usually show strong
variations in transverse-momentum distributions. Both results and
details of the calculation, which is embedded in the HAWK Monte Carlo
generator first designed for Higgs production via vector-boson fusion,
are presented.
