In two recent papers (arXiv:1002.1971 [hep-ph] and arXiv:0911.2460 [hep-ph]) Dermisek and Gunion provide new constraints on a light CP-odd Higgs boson in the framework of the NMSSM (or similar models) based on experimental data from LEP,…
The signal discovered in the Higgs searches at the LHC can be interpreted as the Higgs boson of the Standard Model as well as the light CP-even Higgs boson of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). In this context the measured…
