A light scalar $\phi$ with mass $\lesssim 1$ GeV and muonic coupling $\mathcal{O}(10^{-3})$ would explain the 3.5 $\sigma$ discrepancy between the Standard Model (SM) muon $g-2$ prediction and experiment. Such a scalar can be associated…
The excess of top quark forward-backward asymmetry ($A^t_{FB}$) reported by the Tevatron and the enhancement of the Higgs decay to diphoton observed by the LHC may point to a same origin of new physics. In this note we examined such…
As the 125 GeV Higgs becomes disfavored as a portal to the dark sector, one is motivated to look beyond the SM-Higgs sector, into extended scalar-mediated portal mechanisms. In this work we consider one interesting possibility of such…
Extensions of the Standard Model often come with additional, possibly electroweakly charged Higgs states, the prototypal example being the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model. While collider phenomenology does not exclude the possibility for some of…
Motivated by the recent result reported from LHC on the di-photon search for a Standard Model (SM) Higgs-like boson. We discuss the implications of this possible signal in the framework of the Inert Higgs Doublet Model (IHDM), taking into…
The left-right twin Higgs model predicts a light stable scalar \hat{S}, which is a candidate for WIMP dark matter. We study its scattering on nucleon and find that the cross section is below the CDMS II upper bound but can reach the…
A simple extension of Ma's approach in a scotogenic model is studied for the purpose of simultaneously interpreting the neutrino data and the excess of muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon $g-2$). The feasible minimal extension is to add an…
We consider a simple extension of the standard model with a singlet fermionic dark matter. Its thermal relic density can be easily accommodated by a real singlet scalar messenger that mixes with the standard model Higgs boson. The model can…
We analyze a simple extension of the Standard Model (SM) obtained by adding a complex singlet to the scalar sector (cxSM). We show that the cxSM can contain one or two viable cold dark matter candidates and analyze the conditions on the…
The decays of a Higgs boson to the $\gamma\gamma$ and $Z\gamma$ final states are purely quantum mechanical phenomena that are closely related to each other. We study the effects of an extended Higgs sector on the decay rates of the two…
We present preliminary results from a global study of the extended scalar singlet model with a fermionic dark matter (DM) candidate. In addition to requiring a successful electroweak baryogenesis, we combine constraints from the DM relic…
We propose an extended $3+1$ Higgs doublet model where the Standard Model (SM) gauge structure is enhanced by the discrete symmetry $Q_6 \times Z_2 \times Z_4$, and the fermion content is extended with right-handed Majorana neutrinos. The…
We study a two-Higgs doublet model extended with an additional singlet scalar (2HDM+S), and provide a brief introduction to the model and its parameters. Constraints are applied to the parameter space of this model in order to accommodate a…
Two decay channels $h\rightarrow \gamma \gamma, Z\gamma$ of the Standard Model-like Higgs in a left-right symmetry model are investigated under recent experimental data. We will show there exist one-loop contributions that affect the…
Recently, the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations measured the 125 GeV Higgs boson decay to a pair of muons $h\rightarrow \mu \bar{\mu}$, which reported the signal strength relative to the standard model (SM) prediction is $1.2\pm0.6$ and…
We explore the phenomenological consequences of a model with an extended scalar sector, incorporating strongly coupled inert Higgs doublets. The model introduces three Higgs doublets: one that interacts with the $SU(2)$ symmetry of the…
We consider a three Higgs doublet model with an $S_3$ symmetry in which beside the SM-like doublet there are two fermiophobic doublets. Due to the new charged scalars there is an enhancement in the two-photon decay while the other channels…
We perform a comprehensive study of The Higgs potential of the two Higgs doublet model extended by a real triplet scalar field $\Delta$. This model, dubbed $2\mathcal{HDM+T}$, has a rich Higgs spectrum consisting of three CP-even Higgs…
We analyze and compute, within a number of standard model (SM) extensions, the cross sections $\sigma_{A\to VV'}$ for the production of a heavy neutral pseudoscalar Higgs boson/spin-zero resonance at the LHC and its subsequent decays into…
The Standard Model extended with a complex singlet scalar (cxSM) can admit a strong first order electroweak phase transition (SFOEWPT) as needed for electroweak baryogenesis and provide a dark matter (DM) candidate. The presence of both a…
