We present a general argument that highlights the difficulty of determining the space-time structure of the renormalizable bottom quark Yukawa interactions of the Standard Model Higgs boson, or for that matter of any hypothetical spin-zero…
We study the complete one loop contribution to $H^\pm\to W^\pm V$, $V= Z, \gamma$, in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We evaluate the MSSM contributions taking into account $B\to X_s\gamma$ constraint as well as…
In the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM), we reanalyze the search for the heavier CP-even $H$ and CP-odd $A$ neutral Higgs bosons at the LHC in their production in the gluon-fusion mechanism and…
The Standard Model provides an excellent description of the observables measured at high energy lepton and hadron colliders. However, measurements of the forward-backward asymmetry of the bottom quark at LEP suggest that the effective…
We estimate the top quark, lightest sparticle (LSP) and scalar higgs masses within a supersymmetric grand unified framework in which $\tan\beta \simeq m_t/m_b$ and the electroweak symmetry is radiatively broken. The requirement that the…
Weak scale supersymmetry is often said to be fine-tuned, especially if the matter content is minimal. This is not true if there is a large A term for the top squarks. We present a systematic study on fine-tuning in minimal supersymmetric…
If the sparticles are relatively heavy (a few TeV) while the Higgs sector is not so heavy ($m_A$ is not so large), the Higgs boson Yukawa couplings can harbor sizable quantum effects of sparticles and these large residual effects may play a…
In this letter we consider the distinctive phenomenology of supersymmetric models in which the scale of SUSY breaking is very low, \sqrt{F}= O(TeV), focusing on the Higgs sector and the process of electroweak breaking. Using an effective…
The decay out-states of unstable Standard Model (SM) particles provide a unique, well-defined intrinsic quantum-information probe of the SM parameter space. We use Higgs decays as a test case: after tracing out kinematics, we compute…
The problem of the lightest Higgs boson mass in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model (NMSSM) is investigated. Assuming the validity of the perturbation theory up to unification scales and using the recent experimental results…
A search for the pair production of the lightest supersymmetric partner of the top quark ($\widetilde{\mathrm{t}}_1$) is presented. The search focuses on a compressed scenario where the mass difference between the top squark and the…
Several extensions of the Standard Model require the burden of electroweak symmetry breaking to be shared by multiple states or sectors. This leads to the possibility of the top quark interacting with a scalar more strongly than it does…
We show that the bosonic decays of the lighter top and bottom squarks, i.e. t~_1 -> b~_1 + (H^+ or W^+) and b~_1 -> t~_1 + (H^- or W^-), can be dominant in a wide range of the MSSM parameters. Compared to the fermionic decays, such as t~_1…
In many models of physics beyond the Standard Model the coupling of new states to third generation quarks is enhanced. A review is presented of searches by the CMS collaboration for heavy particles decaying to final states involving top…
We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC (CMS) with subsequent decays into quarks, leptons and LSP in models with effective supersymmetry where third generation of squarks is relatively light while the first two generations…
We argue that in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model with a large trilinear coupling both the fundamental Higgs boson and a bound state of squarks (formed via strong scalar interaction) can have a non-zero VEV. This…
We analyze the contribution of the SUSY particles to the coupling of the lightest Higgs boson to two photons in supersymmetric theories. We discuss to what extent these contributions can be large enough to allow for a discrimination between…
In the present work we search for renormalization group invariant relations among the various massless and massive parameters of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We find that indeed several of the previously free parameters of the…
We perform a comprehensive study of the Higgs sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model in the case where all Higgs bosons are rather light, with masses of ${\cal O}(100 GeV)$, and couple maximally to electroweak…
Supersymmetric gauge theories, in higher dimensions compactified in an orbifold, give a natural framework to unify the gauge bosons, Higgs fields and even the matter fields in a single multiplet of the unifying gauge symmetry. The extra…
