The main phenomenological aspects of the Higgs bosons are briefly reviewed in the context of the Standard Model and in models with an "extended" Higgs sector. Among the latter, special emphasis is made on the Two-Doublet Model and, particularly, the Minimal Supersymmetric Model.

While the existence of a Higgs boson with a mass near 125 GeV has been clearly established, the detailed structure of the entire Higgs sector is yet unclear. Besides the Standard Model interpretation, various possibilities for extended Higgs sectors are being considered. The minimal supersymmetric extension (MSSM) features two Higgs doublets resulting in five physical Higgs bosons, which are subject to direct searches. Alternatively, more generic Two-Higgs Doublet models (2HDM) are used for the interpretation of results. The Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Model (NMSSM) has a more complex Higgs sector with seven physical states. Also exotic Higgs bosons decaying to invisible final states are considered. This article summarizes recent findings based on results from collider experiments.

The Higgs sector in spontaneously broken R-parity supersymmetry (RPSUSY) shows interesting features that require new search techniques. Both the mass spectrum and production rates may differ from the Standard Model and minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM) expectations. For some parameter choices, the dominant Higgs boson decay mode can even be invisible, leading to events with large missing transverse momentum carried by superweakly interacting majorons. We study the reaction pp → Z + H + X, and find that it can lead to detectable events at LHC/SSC for a large region of parameter space.

One doublet of complex scalar fields is the minimal content of the Higgs sector in order to achieve spontaneous electroweak symmetry breaking and, in turn, to generate the masses of fundamental particles in the Standard Model. However, several theories beyond the Standard Model predict a nonminimal Higgs sector and introduce additional singlets, doublets or even higher-order weak isospin representations, thereby yielding additional Higgs bosons. With its high proton–proton collision energy (13 TeV during Run-2), the Large Hadron Collider opens a new window towards the exploration of extended Higgs sectors. This review article summarises the current state-of-the-art experimental results recently obtained in searches for new neutral and charged Higgs bosons with a partial or full Run-2 dataset.

Since the top quark FCNC processes are extremely supressed in the Standard Model (SM) but could be greatly enhanced in some new physics models, they could serve as a smoking gun for new physics hunting at the LHC. In this brief review we summarize the new physics predictions for various top quark FCNC processes at the LHC by focusing on two typical models: the minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM) and the topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) model. The conclusion is: (1) Both new physics models can greatly enhance the SM predictions by several orders; (2) The TC2 model allows for largest enhancement, and for each channel the maximal prediction is much larger than in the MSSM; (3) Compared with the 3σ sensitivity at the LHC, only a couple of channels are accessible for the MSSM while most channles are accesible for the TC2 model.

AbstractThe prediction of additional Higgs bosons is one of the key features of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) that gives rise to an extended Higgs sector. We assess the sensitivity of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the high luminosity (HL) run alone and in combination with a possible future International Linear Collider (ILC) to probe heavy neutral Higgs bosons. We employ the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) as a framework and assume the light $$\mathcal {CP}$$ CP -even MSSM Higgs boson to be the Higgs boson observed at $$125\,\mathrm{GeV}$$ 125 GeV . We discuss the constraints on the MSSM parameter space arising from the precision measurements of the rates of the detected signal at $$125\,\mathrm{GeV}$$ 125 GeV and from direct searches for new heavy Higgs bosons in the $$\tau ^+\tau ^-$$ τ + τ - , $$b\bar{b}$$ b b ¯ and di-Higgs (hh) final states. A new benchmark scenario for heavy Higgs searches in the $$b\bar{b}$$ b b ¯ channel is proposed in this context. For the future Higgs rate measurements at the HL-LHC and ILC two different scenarios are investigated, namely the case where the future rate measurements agree with the SM prediction and the case where the rates agree with the predictions of possible realizations of the MSSM Higgs sector in nature.

Abstract In this work, we analyse and demonstrate possible strategies to explore extended Higgs sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). In particular we concentrate on heavy Higgs decays to electroweakinos. We analyse the Higgs to electroweakino decays in the allowed MSSM parameter space after taking into account 13 TeV LHC searches for supersymmetric particles and phenomenological constraints such as flavour physics, Higgs measurements and dark matter constraints. We explore some novel aspects of these Higgs decays. The final states resulting from Higgs to electroweakino decays will have backgrounds arising from the Standard Model as well as direct electroweakino production at the LHC. We demonstrate explicit kinematical differences between Higgs to electroweakino decays and associated backgrounds. Furthermore, we demonstrate for a few specific example points, optimised analysis search strategies at the high luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) run. Finally, we comment on possible search strategies for heavy Higgs decays to exotic final states, where the lightest chargino is long lived and leads to a disappearing track at the LHC.

The Higgs sector of supersymmetric models with an additional SU (2)× U (1)Y singlet or an additional pair of Higgs doublet superfields is investigated. It is shown that in the model with a Higgs singlet bounds on Higgs boson masses are considerably weaker than in the minimal supersymmetric model; in particular, all neutral scalars can be heavier than about 150 GeV or lighter than [Formula: see text], whereas the mass of the charged Higgs boson is essentially unconstrained. The four doublet model resembles the minimal model more closely; in particular, the bounds for the heaviest and lightest neutral scalar and the heaviest charged Higgs boson are unaltered. In this model, many relations between masses of different Higgs bosons can be found; 44 of the 66 possible decays of one Higgs boson into another Higgs boson plus a real W or Z boson are kinematically forbidden. It is also shown that in both models, the lightest neutral scalar becomes indistinguishable from the standard model Higgs boson if all other Higgs bosons of the model are much heavier than Mw.

Electroweak precision measurements, encoded in the oblique parameters, give strong constraints on physics beyond the Standard Model. The oblique parametersS,T,U(V,W,X)are calculated in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric model (NMSSM). We outline the calculation of the oblique parameters in terms of one-loop gauge-boson self-energies and find sensitive restrictions for the NMSSM parameter space.
