We examine the subprocess $\gamma\gamma \to t\bar{c}+\bar{t}c$ at electron-positron colliders in the two-Higgs-doublet model with flavor-changing scalar couplings, where all the one-loop contribuions are considered, and the results are…
Single top quark production through weak interactions is considered to be an important source of charged Higgs in the Minimal Super Symmetric Standard Model. In the s-channel single top production having largest cross-section may appear as…

A coupling of a scalar, charged under an unbroken global U(1) symmetry, to the Standard Model via the Higgs portal is one of the simplest gateways to a dark sector. Yet, for masses $m_{S}\geq m_{H}/2$ there are few probes of such an…

Particle physics model building within the context of string theory suggests that further copies of the Higgs boson sector may be expected. Concerns regarding tree-level flavor changing neutral currents are easiest to allay if little or no…
The measured properties of the recently discovered Higgs boson are in good agreement with predictions from the Standard Model. However, small deviations in the Higgs couplings may manifest themselves once the currently large uncertainties…
Having a mass comparable to the weak scale, the top quark may have a sizable flavor changing couplings to Higgs bosons. We show that such couplings can be probed at the LHC through the parton subprocess $c(\bar c)g \to t (\bar t)A^0$, where…
The ATLAS Collaboration has recently reported a search for light-charged Higgs in $t\to H^+ b$ decay, with $H^+\to c\bar b$. An excess with a local significance of approximately $3\sigma$ is found at $m_{H^+}\approx130$ GeV, with a best-fit…
With the current measurements performed by CMS and ATLAS experiments, the light charged Higgs scenario ($m_{H^{\pm}}$ $<$ 160 GeV), is excluded for most of the parameter space in the context of MSSM. However, there is still possibility to…
We study the observability of the Higgs boson in the "charming Higgs" model. In this model the Higgs boson primarily undergoes a cascade decay to four charm quarks via light intermediate pseudoscalars. Such a decay allows the Higgs boson to…
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…

We present one-loop corrections to the Higgs boson masses in the MSSM with Non-Minimal Flavor Violation. The flavor violation is generated from the hypothesis of general flavor mixing in the squark mass matrices, and these are parameterized…
Flavor violating interactions of the Higgs boson are a generic feature of models with extended electroweak symmetry breaking sectors. Here, we investigate CP violation in these interactions, which can arise from interference of tree-level…
In this study, predictions obtained in the four and in the five flavour schemes are compared for two important processes involving heavy flavours at the LHC: the production of a $Z$ or a Higgs boson in association with $b$ quarks. In…
