To ascertain the new boson with mass near 125 {GeV} observed recently by ATLAS and CMS Collaborations to be the Standard Model Higgs, and to determine its intrinsic properties, more measurements on its various decay channels are still…
We identify scenarios not ruled out by LEP data in which NMSSM Higgs detection at the LHC will be particularly challenging. We first review the `no-lose' theorem for Higgs discovery at the LHC that applies if Higgs bosons do not decay to…
The LHC potential for observing a light Higgs boson produced through Weak Boson Fusion mode, ${\rm qq}\to {\rm qqH}$, is presented. For non-hadronic decays modes of the Higgs boson the process is identified with a final state containing two…

The particle discovered in the Higgs boson searches at the LHC with a mass of about 125 GeV is compatible within the present uncertainties with the Higgs boson predicted in the Standard Model (SM), but it could also be identified with one…
We comment on the Standard Model Higgs boson evidence from LHC. We propose that the new resonance at 125 GeV could be interpreted as a pseudoscalar meson with quantum number $J^{PC} = 0^{- +}$. We show that this pseudoscalar could mimic the…
Unlike other realisations of the 2-Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM), the so-called Type-I allows for a very light Higgs boson spectrum. Specifically, herein, the heaviest of the two CP-even neutral Higgs states, $H$, can be the one discovered at…
