Contrary to the common perception, we show that the current Higgs data does not eliminate the possibility of a sequential fourth generation that get their masses through the same Higgs mechanism as the first three generations. The inability…
Results from several recent experiments provide inderect evidences in the favor of existence of a 4th generation neutrino. Such a neutrino of mass about 50 GeV is compatible with current physical and astrophysical constraints and well…

We examine how mixing between the Standard Model(SM) Higgs boson, $h$, and the radion of the Randall-Sundrum model modifies the expected properties of the Higgs boson. In particular, we demonstrate that the total and partial decay widths of…
Particle physics models with more than one Higgs boson occur in many frameworks for physics beyond the standard model, including supersymmetry, technicolor, composite Higgs, and "little Higgs" models. If the Higgs sector contains couplings…
Theoretical arguments and lattice simulations suggest that, beside the known resonance of mass $m_h=$ 125 GeV, the Higgs field might exhibit a second resonance with a larger mass $(M_H)^{\rm theor} = 690 \pm 10 ~({\rm stat}) \pm 20 ~({\rm…

In this paper, we investigate how the LHC data limit the Higgs-related couplings in the effective description of a strongly interacting extension of the Standard model. The Higgs boson is introduced as a scalar composite state and it is…
The LHC phenomenology of a low-scale gauged flavor symmetry model with inverted hierarchy is studied, through introduction of a simplified model of broken flavor symmetry. A new scalar (a flavon) and a new neutral top-philic massive gauge…
We study the pair production of fourth generation neutrinos from the decay of an on-shell Higgs produced by gluon fusion. In a fourth generation scenario, the Higgs branching fraction into fourth generation neutrinos may be quite large. In…
Phenomenology of a radion ($\phi$) that stabilizes the modulus in the Randall-Sundrum scenario is considered. The radion couples to the trace of energy momentum tensor of the standard model (SM) with a strength suppressed only by a new…
A system of two heavy fermions, leptons or quarks of the fourth generation, which are bound together via the Higgs boson exchange is studied. The conventional Yukawa-type interaction produced by this exchange is accompanied by several…
We argue that given the experimental constraints on the Higgs mass the least fine tuned parameter space of minimal supersymmetric standard model is with negative stop masses squared at the grand unification scale. While stop mass squared is…
Ongoing LHC searches for the standard model Higgs Boson in WW or ZZ decay modes strongly constrain the top-Higgs state predicted in many models with new dynamics that preferentially affects top quarks. Such a state couples strongly to…
Using published Higgs search data we investigate whether any evidence supports the possibility that the Higgs may be mixed with other neutral scalars. We combine the positive evidence for the Higgs at 125.5 GeV with search constraints at…
The decay of the Standard Model Higgs boson into four leptons via a virtual W-boson or Z-boson pair is one of the most important decay modes in the Higgs-boson search at the LHC. We present the complete electroweak radiative corrections of…
The predicted value of the higgs mass $m_H$ is analyzed assuming the existence of the fourth generation of leptons ($N, E$) and quarks ($U, D$). The steep and flat directions are found in the five-dimensional parameter space: $m_H$, $m_U$,…
