In this work, we explore how the 2-Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) Type-I, extended by an inert doublet, can provide an explanation for the recently observed excesses at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the $\gamma\gamma$ and $\tau^+ \tau^- $…

Recent reanalysis of ALEPH data on Z -> b bar{b} + X seems to indicate an existence of the dimuon excess around 30 GeV with a branching fraction for Z -> b bar{b} mu^+ mu^- around 1.1 X 10^{-5}. In this letter, we discuss three different…
