The ATLAS and CMS experiments observed a particle at the LHC with a mass $\approx 126$ GeV, which is compatible with the Higgs boson of the Standard Model. A crucial question is, if for such a Higgs mass value, one could extrapolate the…
We perform a detailed comparison of the present LEP data with the one-loop standard-model predictions. It is pointed out that for $m_t= 174$ GeV the ``bulk'' of the data prefers a rather large value of the Higgs mass in the range 500-1000…
The latest electroweak precision data are analyzed assuming the existence of the fourth generation of leptons ($N, E$) and quarks ($U, D$), which are not mixed with the known three generations. If all four new particles are heavier than $Z$…
Though the mass of Higgs particle is the parameter determined by the experiment in the standard model (SM), SUSY models have rather predictive power for the lightest Higgs mass, and its upper bound in some SUSY models are close to the…
An updated global analysis within the Standard Model (SM) of all relevant electroweak precision and Higgs boson search data is presented with special emphasis on the implications for the Higgs boson mass, M_H. Included are, in particular,…
The minimal supersymmetric standard model, and extensions, have stringent upper bounds on the mass of the lightest Higgs boson if perturbativity up to the Planck scale is assumed. We argue that these bounds are softened tremendously if the…
We study the range of Higgs masses predicted by High-Scale Supersymmetry and by Split Supersymmetry, using the matching condition for the Higgs quartic coupling determined by the minimal field content. In the case of Split Supersymmetry, we…
In this talk the question of what is the upper bound on the lightest supersymmetric Higgs mass, m_h is addressed. This question is relevant since experimental lower bounds on m_h might implement, in the near future, exclusion of…
Within a two-loop leading-log approximation, we review the prediction for the lightest Higgs mass (m_h) in the framework of constrained MSSM (CMSSM), derived from the naturalness requirement of minimal fine-tuning (Delta) of the electroweak…
We study the implications of the absence of a direct discovery of a Higgs boson at LEP. First we exhibit 15 physically different ways in which one or more Higgs bosons lighter than the LEP limit could still exist. In the minimal…
We study the effects on the Higgs boson mass from LEP precision data of the new physics explaining $R_b$-$R_c$ crisis. We implement a fit to LEP observables with the new physics. We obtain $M_H^{\rm New Physics} = 85 ^{+ 467}_{-56} ~~{\rm…
We estimate the upper bound of the Higgs mass and allowed parameter region in the anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking models. There has been a difficulty that the parameter region cannot be determined precisely in almost SUSY models.…
We update the upper bound on the lightest CP even Higgs mass in the NMSSM, which is given as a function of tan(beta) and lambda. We include the available one and two loop corrections to the NMSSM Higgs masses, and constraints from the…
We discuss the bound on the mass of the Higgs boson arising from precision electroweak measurements in the context of the triviality of the scalar Higgs model. We show that, including possible effects from the underlying nontrivial…
The upper and the lower bounds of the lightest CP-even Higgs-boson mass ($m_h$) are discussed in the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) with a softly-broken discrete symmetry. They are obtained as a function of a cut-off scale $\Lambda$ ($\leq…
In supersymmetric models with minimal particle content and without large left-right squarks mixing, the conventional knowledge is that the Higgs Boson mass around 125 GeV leads to top squark masses ${\cal O}(10)$ TeV, far beyond the reach…
The relation $M_H^2\simeq M_ZM_t$, previously proposed as a non-trivial Higgs mass coincidence, is reconsidered with present electroweak inputs and with a scheme-consistent matching analysis. With the 2025 PDG values for $M_Z$, $M_W$ and…
After a brief review of the muon g-2 status, we analyze the possibility that the present discrepancy between experiment and the Standard Model (SM) prediction may be due to hypothetical errors in the determination of the hadronic…
It is shown that the effective Standard Model theory with the physical Higgs mass lighter than $\sim 200$ GeV takes the form of an unbroken electroweak theory already at moderately high, $O(1 TeV)$, energy scales. No such transitional scale…
Recent studies to finalize the systematic error estimates on the measurement of the mass of the W boson at LEP2 are reviewed. Results including a new preliminary value from Aleph are updated together with the world average which is now…
