We give explicit formulas for the decays of the Higgs bosons of the minimal supersymmetric model to neutralinos and charginos. The important features of these decays are illustrated and their phenomenological implications discussed. When phase space allowed, this class of two-body decays is at least as important as, and often dominates, other types of Higgs decay modes, such as WW or ZZ and heavy fermion anti-fermion channels.

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.

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.

In the Next-to-Minimal SuperSymmetric Model (NMSSM) the lightest CP-odd Higgs bosons (a1) can be very light. As a consequence, in addition to the standard charged Higgs boson (h±) decays considered in the MSSM for a light charged Higgs (mh±<mt), the branching fraction forh±→a1Wcan be dominant. We investigate how this signal can be searched for intt-production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the case that (ma1≳2mB) with thea1giving rise to a singlebb--jet and discuss to what extent the LHC experiments are able to discover such a scenario with an integrated luminosity ~20 fb−1. We also discuss the implications of the possible Higgs-signal observed at the LHC.
