The type-II see-saw mechanism based on the annexation of the Standard Model by weak gauge triplet scalar field proffers a natural explanation for the very minuteness of neutrino masses. Noting that the phenomenology for the non-degenerate…
In type II seesaw utilized to explain the observed neutrino masses and mixings, one extends the Standard Model (SM) by introducing scalar fields which transform as a triplet under the electroweak gauge symmetry. New scalar couplings…
Despite a great deal of effort in searching for the triplet-like Higgses in the type-II seesaw model, evidence for their production is yet to be found at the LHC. As such, one might be in the balance regarding this model's relevance at the…
Several independent constraints on the minimal supersymmetric model with constraints from grand unifications and cosmology select the region of low-energy supersymmetry below ${\cal O}$(1~TeV). The resulting mass of the lightest Higgs boson…

The Type-II seesaw model predicts doubly and singly charged scalars along with neutral Higgs states originating from an $SU(2)$ triplet. Current LHC searches by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations constrain these particles mainly under the…
In this work, we investigate the prospects of future $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliders in testing a Higgs triplet model with a scalar triplet and a scalar singlet under $SU(2)$. The parameters of the model are fixed so that the lightest $CP-$even…
The LHC did not discover new particles beyond the Standard Model Higgs boson at 7 and 8 TeV, or in the first data samples at 13 TeV. However, the complementary nature of physics with $e^+e^-$ collisions still offers many interesting…
We examine the effects of the extended gauge sector of the Littlest Higgs model in high energy e+e- collisions. We find that the search reach in e+e- -> f fbar at a 500 GeV center-of-mass energy International Linear Collider covers…
Search for light (within the mass range 84-200 GeV) doubly-charged Higgs bosons decaying into a pair of W-bosons has been deemed challenging using the conventional LHC searches with leptons, jets and missing transverse momentum in the final…
We study the phenomenology of the type-II seesaw model at a linear e^-e^- collider. We show that the process e^-e^- \rightarrow alpha^-beta^- (alpha, beta = e, mu, tau being charged leptons) mediated by a doubly charged scalar is very…
Despite direct searches at the LHC excluding tripletlike Higgs bosons up to several hundred GeV over much of the type-II seesaw model parameter space, parts of it -- most notably those featuring ``cascade decays'' of the charged Higgs…
We study direct searches of additional Higgs bosons in multi-top-quarks events at the LHC Run-II, its luminosity upgraded version with 3000 fb$^{-1}$, and the International Linear Collider (ILC) with the collision energy of 1 TeV.…
Present data do not rule out a light neutral Higgs particle with mass below 40--50 GeV in the framework of 2HDM with $ tan \beta \sim $ 20-30. The promising possibility of searching for a light Higgs particle in such a scenario in…
A heavy Standard Model Higgs boson is not only disfavored by electroweak precision observables but is also excluded by direct searches at the 7 TeV LHC for a wide range of masses. Here, we examine scenarios where a heavy Higgs boson can be…
Light higgsinos with mass ~100-400 GeV are well-motivated from naturalness considerations within supersymmetric models. However, at hadron colliders such as CERN LHC, they are rather difficult to search for due to the small visible energy…

Most models of new physics contain extended Higgs sectors with multiple Higgs bosons. The observation of an additional Higgs boson, besides the $\sim 125$ GeV `$h_{\rm obs}$', will thus serve as an irrefutable evidence of physics beyond the…
