FeynHiggs1.2: Hybrid MSbar/on-shell Renormalization for the CP-even Higgs Boson Sector in the MSSM

Abstract

An updated version is presented of the Fortran code FeynHiggs for the evaluation of the neutral CP-even Higgs sector masses and mixing angles. It differs from the previous version by a modification of the renormalization scheme concerning the treatment of subleading terms at the one-loop level; the two-loop corrections, for which the leading contributions of O(alphat alphas) and O(alphat2) are implemented, are not affected by the modified renormalization prescription. Besides stabilizing the Higgs mass calculations and avoiding unphysically large threshold effects, the mass of the lightest MSSM Higgs boson, mh, is increased by 1-2 GeV for most parts of the MSSM parameter space.
