AbstractIn this work, we study the potential of searching for triply charged Higgs boson originating from a complex Higgs quadruplet in the final state with at least three same-sign leptons. A detailed collider analysis of the SM backgrounds and signals is performed at a 100 TeV pp collider for the triply charged Higgs boson mass below 1 TeV and the Higgs quadruplet vacuum expectation value $$v_\Delta $$ v Δ ranging from $$1.5\times 10^{-9}~\text {GeV}$$ 1.5 × 10 - 9 GeV to $$1.3~\text {GeV}$$ 1.3 GeV and the mass splitting $$\Delta m$$ Δ m between the nearby states of the Higgs quadruplet satisfying $$|\Delta m|\lesssim 30~\text {GeV}$$ | Δ m | ≲ 30 GeV . About $$100~\text {fb}^{-1}$$ 100 fb - 1 of data are required at most for $$5\sigma $$ 5 σ discovery. We also revisit the sensitivity at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and find that $$5\sigma $$ 5 σ discovery of the triply charged Higgs boson below 1 TeV can be reached for a relatively small $$v_\Delta $$ v Δ . For example, if $$v_\Delta =10^{-6}~\text {GeV}$$ v Δ = 10 - 6 GeV and $$\Delta m=0$$ Δ m = 0 , the integrated luminosity of $$330~\text {fb}^{-1}$$ 330 fb - 1 is needed. But for a relatively large $$v_\Delta $$ v Δ , i.e., $$v_\Delta \gtrsim 10^{-3}~\text {GeV}$$ v Δ ≳ 10 - 3 GeV , the triply charged Higgs boson above about 800 GeV cannot be discovered even in the high-luminosity LHC era. For $$\Delta m>0$$ Δ m > 0 , the cascade decays are open and the sensitivity can be improved depending on the value of $$v_\Delta $$ v Δ .

Higgs Boson Search

The CMS collaboration reported an intriguing [Formula: see text] (local) excess at 96 GeV in the light Higgs-boson search in the diphoton decay mode. This mass coincides with a [Formula: see text] (local) excess in the [Formula: see text] final state at LEP. We briefly review the proposed combined interpretations for the two excesses. In more detail, we review the interpretation of this possible signal as the lightest Higgs boson in the 2 Higgs Doublet Model with an additional real Higgs singlet (N2HDM). We show which channels have the best prospects for the discovery of additional Higgs bosons at the upcoming Run 3 of the LHC.

We present the results of a search for a neutral MSSM Higgs boson decaying to a pair of tau leptons. The analyzed data sample corresponds to integrated luminosity of approximately 200 pb-1 of [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text]. It was collected by the CDF detector during Run 2 of the Fermilab Tevatron. We select tau pairs in which one of the taus decays hadronically and the other to e or μ and neutrinos. We see no evidence of signal and perform a fit to the (partially) reconstructed di-tau mass to set limits on the product of Higgs production cross-section and its branching fraction to taus.

Abstract We investigate the production of three Higgs bosons in the Two Real Singlet extension of the Standard Model, where the scalar sector is augmented by two additional real scalar fields which are singlets under the Standard Model gauge group. The model contains three neutral CP-even scalars, allowing for resonant production and asymmetric decay chains. We focus on the signature pp → h3→ h1h2→ h1h1h1, where we identify h3 as the heaviest scalar state, h2 as the second heaviest and the lightest, h1, as the Standard Model-like Higgs boson discovered by the Large Hadron Collider experiments. The dominant final state occurs when all three Higgs bosons decay to bottom-anti-bottom quark pairs, h1→$$ b\overline{b} $$ b b ¯ , leading to 6 b-jets. Taking into account all current theoretical and experimental constraints, we determine the discovery prospects for this channel in future runs of the Large Hadron Collider, as well as in the high-luminosity phase.

In this paper, the top quark pair production events are analyzed as a source of neutral Higgs bosons of the two Higgs doublet model type I at LHC. The production mechanism is pp→H/A→tt¯ assuming a fully hadronic final state through t→Wb→jjb. In order to distinguish the signal from the main background which is the standard model tt¯, we benefit from the fact that the top quarks in signal events acquire large Lorentz boost due to the heavy neutral Higgs boson. This feature leads to three collinear jets (a fat jet) which is a discriminating tool for identification of the top quarks from the Higgs boson resonances. Events with two identified top jets are selected and the invariant mass of the top pair is calculated for both signal and background. It is shown that the low tan β region has still some parts which can be covered by this analysis and has not yet been excluded by flavor physics data.

We briefly summarize some searches for Higgs bosons with a mass of [Formula: see text] GeV at LEP and the LHC. We discuss a possible signal in the diphoton decay mode at [Formula: see text] GeV as reported by CMS, together with a [Formula: see text] hint in the [Formula: see text] final state at LEP. We briefly review possible interpretation of such a new particle in various BSM models. We focus on possible explanations as reported within the NMSSM and the [Formula: see text]SSM. Conclusions for future collider projects are briefly outlined.
