Description

In this talk I discuss the radiative corrections to the Higgs boson masses in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. I present a new calculation of the two-loop O(a_t*a_s + a _t2) corrections, based on the effective potential approach and valid for arbitrary values of the relevant MSSM parameters. I also discuss the numerical impact of the O(a_t2) corrections, showing that they are not fully taken into account by most of the existing analyses.
