The latest preliminary combined results of the Higgs boson searches from the LEP experiments ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL are presented. A general scan of the MSSM parameters is performed and leads to stringent lower mass limits and for the…
Experimental and theoretical clues both suggest that the Higgs boson has a mass below the LEP2 lower limit of 114.4 GeV. If true, this suggests that the dominant Higgs decay is nonstandard while the production cross sections remain…
A search for a Higgs boson decaying into a Z boson and a photon is described. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision datasets recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. Events were collected at center-of-mass energies of 7…
In this study, we explore the phenomenological signatures associated with a light fermiophobic Higgs boson, $h_{\rm f}$, within the type-I two-Higgs-doublet model at the HL-LHC. Our meticulous parameter scan illuminates an intriguing mass…
In the context of gauge-Higgs unification scenario in a 5-dimensional flat spacetime, we investigate Higgs boson production via gluon fusion and its diphoton decay mode at the LHC. We show that the signal strength of the Higgs diphoton…

This Letter presents a search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson to a pair of new (pseudo)scalar particles, $H\to aa$, where the $a$ particle has a mass in the range 20-60 GeV, and where one of the $a$ bosons decays into a pair of photons…
We consider a generic abelian hidden sector that couples to the Standard Model only through gauge-invariant renormalizable operators. This allows the exotic Higgs boson to mix with the Standard Model Higgs boson, and the exotic abelian…

A Fermiophobic Higgs boson can arise in models with an extended Higgs sector, such as models with scalars in an isospin triplet representation. In a specific model with a scalar triplet and spontaneous violation of lepton number induced by…
The production of lepton pairs in the Higgs boson decay $h \to \ell^+ \ell^- \gamma$ is studied. The emphasis is put on the structure of the Higgs boson interaction with the fermions. This interaction is chosen as a mixture of the scalar…
We present searches for Higgs bosons decaying to the di-photon final state using up to 5.4/fb of data at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Whilst the branching ratio to the di-photon final state is small…
We derive model-independent constraints on Higgs mass and couplings from associated signals for higher masses, accessible at LEP2. This work is motivated by the fact that, in many extensions of the standard model, the Higgs boson can have…
Doubly-charged Higgs bosons are searched for in e^+e^- collision data collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies up to 209 GeV. Final states with four leptons are analysed to tag the pair-production of doubly charged…
Within the four generation Standard Model, the Higgs couplings to gluons and to photons deviate in a significant way from the predictions of the three generation Standard Model. As a consequence, large departures in several Higgs production…
There could be a Higgs boson with a mass less than 100 GeV/c2 in the LEP data if its decay width and modes are not dominated by b quarks. At present, the quantum interference between signal and background processes has not been considered…
