After many years of searches, the Higgs boson was observed by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations in July 2012. Since then, its properties have been measured using primarily the bosonic decay channels: $H \to \gamma\gamma $, $H \to Z Z$, $H…
Motivated by the possible 95 GeV diphoton excess, we investigate the capability of the Type-I Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM-I) to explain this signal under current theoretical and experimental constraints. Using full Monte Carlo (MC)…

The discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC exposes some of the most profound mysteries fundamental physics has encountered in decades, opening the door to the next phase of experimental exploration. More than ever, this will necessitate…
We propose a novel kinematic method to expedite the discovery of the double Higgs ($hh$) production in the $\ell^+\ell^- b \bar{b} + E_T \hspace{-0.52cm} \big / ~$ final state. We make full use of recently developed kinematic variables, as…

Doubly-charged Higgs bosons ($\Delta^{--}/\Delta^{++}$) appear in several extensions to the Standard Model and can be relatively light. We review the theoretical motivation for these states and present a study of the discovery reach in…
The Higgs-strahlung process $\ell^+\ell^-\to Z h$ is one of the most important production channels of the standard model Higgs boson $h$ at the lepton colliders. The cross section reaches the maximum value slightly above the threshold…
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…
Quantum corrections generate a quadratically divergent mass term for the Higgs boson in the Standard Model. Thus, if the Higgs boson has a mass of order 100 GeV, it implies the presence of a cut-off of the theory around TeV scale, and some…
We analyse the chances of detecting charged Higgs bosons of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the $W^\pm h$ mode, followed by the dominant decay of the lightest Higgs scalar, $h\to b\bar…
