We consider models with multiple Higgs scalar gauge singlets and the resulting restrictions on the parameters from precision electroweak measurements. In these models, the scalar singlets mix with the SU(2) Higgs doublet, potentially…
We discuss the connections between the recently observed Higgs-like particle and rare B decays in the context of two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs). The measured decays of the Higgs boson to fermions and gauge bosons, along with the…
In this article, we recast and combine the CMS and ATLAS analyses of the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying to a pair of $W$ bosons in order to search for low-mass resonances in this channel. We provide limits on the corresponding cross…
A measurement of the mass of the $W$ boson is presented based on proton-proton collision data recorded in 2011 at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, and corresponding to 4.6 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated…
A search for the Higgs boson decaying to $W^+W^-$ has been performed on $1.1\:$fb$^{-1}$ of pp collision data at $\sqrt{s}=7\:$TeV collected with the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector in 2011. No significant excess above Standard Model…
We discuss the prediction of the $W$ boson mass in a simple extension of the Standard Model ($\Sigma {\rm SM}$) with a real scalar triplet. A shift in the $W$ mass as reported by the CDF II collaboration can naturally be accommodated by the…
The CDF collaboration recently reported a measurement of the $W$-bosos mass, $M_W$, showing a large positive deviation from the Standard Model (SM) prediction. The question arises whether extensions of the SM exist that can accommodate such…
We discuss the current status of theoretical and experimental constraints on the real Higgs singlet extension of the Standard Model. For the second neutral (non-standard) Higgs boson we consider the full mass range from 1 GeV to 1 TeV…
Preliminary results of the search for a Standard Model like Higgs boson at the LHC with 5 fb-1 data have just been presented by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations and an excess of events at a mass of ~125 GeV has been reported. If this excess…
The analysis of the Higgs boson data by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations appears to exhibit an excess of h --> gamma\gamma events above the Standard Model (SM) expectations; whereas no significant excess is observed in h --> ZZ* --> {four…
An upperbound on the mass of the lightest neutral scalar Higgs boson is calculated in an extended version of the minimal supersymmetric standard model that contains an additional Higgs singlet. We integrate the renormalization group…
Both the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC have reported the observation of the particle of mass around 125GeV which is consistent to the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson, but with an excess of events beyond the SM expectation in the…
We argue that the present value and accuracy of $M_W$ and $m_t$ measurements tend to favor the MSSM over the SM. By speculating that a precision of the order 40 MeV and 3 GeV respectively for $M_W$ and $m_t$ will be achieved at LEP2 and…
