Several indications for neutral scalars are observed at the LHC. One of them, a broad resonance peaked at about 650 GeV which we call H(650), was first observed by an outsider combining published histograms from ATLAS and CMS on ZZ -> 4…
In this note we propose an overview on the current theoretical and experimental limits on a Higgs singlet extension of the Standard Model. We assume that the Boson which has recently been measured by the LHC experiments is the lightest…
The possibility of identification of an observable CMS $\mu^+ \mu^-$ excess at 28 GeV in the channel $pp\to \mu^+ \mu^- b \bar b$ at $\sqrt{s}$=8 TeV and 13 TeV as a manifestation of one of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM)…
In light of the recent 750 GeV diphoton excesses reported by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations, we investigate the possibility of explaining this excess using the Minimal Dilaton Model. We find that this model is able to explain the observed…
We study the possibility of a heavy scalar or pseudoscalar in TeV-scale beyond the Standard Model scenarios being the inflaton of the early universe in light of the recent O(750) GeV diphoton excess at the LHC. We consider a scenario in…
The experimental results of the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider are reported, based on a dataset of pp collision data with an integrated luminosity of up to 4.9 fb^-1 at…
The ATLAS collaboration has recently reported the results of a low-mass Higgs-boson search in the di-photon final state based on the full Run 2 data set. The results are based on an improved analysis w.r.t. the previous analysis, which…
The combined CMS and ATLAS analysis of \(h \to Z\gamma\) reveals a \(2\sigma\) excess over the Standard Model (SM) prediction, hinting at potential new physics. In contrast, the observed agreement of \(\mu_{\gamma\gamma}\) with the SM…
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…
Recently the CMS collaboration reported a $\sim 3 \sigma$ local excess in the di-photon spectrum at 96 GeV. The same mass range concurs with a $\sim2 \sigma$ local excess in the $b\bar{b}$ invariant mass spectrum in four-jet events…
The diphoton excess around $m_S=750$ GeV observed at ATLAS and CMS can be interpreted as coming from $S=H$ and $A$, the neutral components of a second Higgs doublet. If so, then the consistency of the light Higgs decays with the Standard…
We suggest that the recently observed diphoton excess at 750 GeV comes from a quasi-degenerate bunch of gauge singlet scalars produced and decaying through one or more vector-like fermions. This explains the broad nature of the resonance,…
We have studied measurements of the cross section for e+e- --> hadrons for center-of-mass energies in the range 20--209 GeV. We find an apparent excess over the predictions of the Standard Model across the whole range amounting to more than…
Hints for an additional Higgs boson with a mass of about 95 GeV originate from LEP and searches in the diphoton channel by CMS and ATLAS. A search for resonant production of SM plus BSM Higgs bosons in the diphoton plus bb channel by CMS…
The two-Higgs doublet model (2HDM) provides an excellent benchmark to study physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). In this work we discuss how the behaviour of the model at high energy scales causes it to have a scalar with properties very…
The aim of this short paper is to discuss the recently observed excess at 750 GeV by both CMS and ATLAS in the light of the dual standard model. Within this framework it is natural to introduce neutral spin 0 and/or spin 2 $SU(2)$ glue…
We analyze the CMS-reported t tbar excess within conventional Two-Higgs-Doublet Models of Types I, II, X, and Y, using the best-fit pseudoscalar parameters MA = 365 GeV, GammaA over MA = 2 percent, and tan beta = 1.28. Applying theoretical…
Interpreting the diphoton mass excesses near 750~GeV reported by ATLAS and CMS as pseudoscalar gluinonia, bound states of two gluinos, we perform a scan in Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetry parameter space, fixing $m_{\tilde{g}}\approx 380$~GeV…
The most recent searches by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations in final states with soft leptons and missing transverse energy show mild excesses predominantly associated with dilepton invariant masses of about 10-20 GeV, which can result…
The cutoff dependence of the Scalar Sector of the Minimal Standard Model can result in an increase of the existing triviality bound estimates of the Higgs mass. We present a large $N$ calculation and some preliminary N=4 results that…
