The production and decay of heavy charged Higgs bosons at a 800 GeV e+e- linear collider have been studied. The analysis of the H+H- -> tb tb, expected to be dominant in the MSSM, and H+H- -> W+h0 W-h0 decay modes leading to the same final…
On-going Higgs searches in the light mass window are of vital importance for testing the Higgs mechanism and probing new physics beyond the standard model (SM). The latest ATLAS and CMS searches for the SM Higgs boson at the LHC (7TeV)…
A search for neutral Higgs bosons in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) decaying to a pair of b quarks or a pair of tau leptons, using events recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2011 and 2012 at the…
We reconsider observables for discovering and measuring the mass of a Higgs boson via its di-leptonic decays: H --> WW* --> l nu l nu. We define an observable generalizing the transverse mass that takes into account the fact that one of the…
The two-Higgs-doublet model contains extra Higgs bosons, with mass ranges spanning from several hundred GeV to about 1 TeV. We study the possible experimental searches for the neutral Higgs bosons of $A$ and $H$ at the future…
Three rare decay processes of the Higgs boson to a $\rho$(770)$^0$, $\phi$(1020), or K$^{*}$(892)$^0$ meson and a photon are searched for using $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC.…
Old and new ideas regarding Higgs physics are reviewed. We first summarize the quadratic divergence / hierarchy problem which strongly suggests that the SM Higgs sector will be supplemented by new physics at high scales. We next consider…
We report on searches for a standard model (SM) Higgs boson in $p\bar(p)$ collisions at a center of mass energy sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV with the CDF and D0 detectors using an integrated luminosity of more than 3.0/fb. For a SM Higgs with mass…
Results are reported from a search for non-standard-model Higgs boson decays to pairs of new light bosons, each of which decays into the oppositely charged dimuon final state. The new bosons may be produced either promptly or via a decay…
The dominance of $h\to \eta \eta$ decay mode for the intermediate mass Higgs boson is highly motivated to solve the little hierarchy problem and to ease the tension with the precision data. However, the discovery modes for $m_h \alt 150$…
Searching for new Higgs particle beyond the observed light Higgs boson h(125GeV) will unambiguously point to new physics beyond the standard model. We study the resonant production of a CP-even heavy Higgs state $H^0$ in the di-Higgs…
Searches are reported for Higgs bosons in the context of either the standard model extended to include a fourth generation of fermions (SM4) with masses of up to 600 GeV or fermiophobic models. For the former, results from three decay modes…
A search is presented for a heavy pseudoscalar boson A decaying to a Z boson and a Higgs boson with mass of 125 GeV. In the final state considered, the Higgs boson decays to a bottom quark and antiquark, and the Z boson decays either into a…
If the very rare $B_d^0 \to \mu^+\mu^-$ decay is enhanced to (3--4) $\times 10^{-10}$ level or higher, it can be discovered with existing 2011-2012 LHC data. It might then cast some doubt on the Higgs boson nature of the 126 GeV boson,…
It is widely believed that searching for a light Higgs boson (with a mass around 120 GeV) in the WH and ZH channels, where H decays into $b\bar{b}$, will be very challenging at the LHC. These proceedings describe how this channel can be…
Accepting the existence of a SM-like Higgs boson in the range 123GeV-127GeV as indicated by the observed ga,ga events, there are two distinct regions left in the Minimal Supersymmetric (SUSY) Standard Model (MSSM) Higgs sector: (a) the…
Recently the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC have found a Higgs like boson $h$ with a mass around 125 GeV from several decay modes. The decay mode $h \to \gamma\gamma$ is one of the most important modes in studying whether $h$ is…
The discovery of a heavy Higgs boson with mass up to m_H = 1 TeV at the CERN LHC is possible in the H--> W^+W^- --> l nu jj decay mode. The weak boson scattering signal and backgrounds from t\bar tjj and from W+jets production are analyzed…
The recent discovery of a new boson of mass roughly 125 GeV has been reported by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. Although its signals in various decay modes resemble those of the standard model (SM) Higgs boson, observed are the…
We present a first computation of the NNLO QCD cross section at the LHC for the production of four leptons from a Higgs boson decaying into W bosons. We study the cross section for a Higgs boson mass Mh = 165 GeV; around this value a…
