Contribution of Scalar Loops to the Three-Photon Decay of the Z
I corrected 3 mistakes from the first version: that were an omitted Feynman
integration in the function f^3_{ij}, a factor of 2 in front of log f^3_{ij} in
eq.2 and an overall factor of 2 in Fig.1 c). The final result is changed
drastically. Doing an expansion in the Higgs mass I show that the matrix
element is identically 0 in the order (MZ/MH)^2, which is due to gauge
invariance. Left with an amplitude of the order (MZ/MH)^4 the final result is
that the scalar contribution to this decay rate is several orders of magnitude
smaller than those of the W boson and fermions.Comment: 6 pages, plain Tex, 1 figure available under request via fax or mail,
