We explore the phenomenology of a fermiophobic Higgs: a Higgs whose couplings to fermions are suppressed. We calculate the branching ratios of a Higgs decaying to $\gamma\gamma$, $W^*W^*$, $Z^*Z^*$, $Zb\bar b$, $Z\gamma$, $\gamma b\bar b$,…
We explore the Higgs couplings to gauge bosons in the minimal $SO(5)/SO(4)$ 4D composite Higgs model. The pions scatterings put unitary constraints on the couplings and therefore determine the branch ratios of various Higgs decays. Through…

The existence of certain TeV suppressed higher-dimension operators may open up new decay channels for the Higgs boson to decay into lighter right-handed neutrinos. These channels may dominate over all other channels if the Higgs boson is…
We calculate four-fermion decays of a Higgs boson via $WW$ and/or $ZZ$ intermediate states for Higgs masses below $m_W$. We examine models with a doubly-charged Higgs boson $H^{++}$ and show that the four-fermion decay is the dominant mode…

The observation that the $b \rightarrow s\gamma $ decay rate is close to the Standard Model value implies a large mass for the charged-Higgs boson in the Minimum Supersymmetric Standard Model, that nearly closes the $t \rightarrow b H^+$…
We study a limit of the nearly-Peccei-Quinn-symmetric Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model possessing novel Higgs and dark matter (DM) properties. In this scenario, there naturally co-exist three light singlet-like particles: a…
The Higgs particle can decay dominantly into an invisible channel in the Majoron models. We have explored the prospect of detecting such a Higgs particle at LHC via its associated production with a gluon, Z or W boson. While the…
Two--photon decays of Higgs bosons are important channels for the search of these particles in the intermediate mass range at the $pp$ colliders LHC and SSC. Dynamical aspects of the Higgs coupling to two photons can also be studied by…
We study the decays of the Higgs bosons $H^{\pm}$, $H^0$, and $A^0$ within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. For decays into quarks and squarks we include the supersymmetric QCD radiative corrections. We find that the corrections…

In the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, CP-even Higgs bosons can have masses in the range of 80-110 GeV in agreement with constraints from LEP due to their sizeable singlet component. Nevertheless their branching ratio into…
The simplest extension of the supersymmetric standard model - the addition of one singlet superfield - can have a profound impact on the Higgs and its decays. We perform a general operator analysis of this scenario, focusing on the…
