A special class of supersymmetric U(1) gauge extensions of the standard model was proposed in 2002. It is anomaly-free, has no mu term, and conserves baryon and lepton numbers automatically. It also allows the lightest Higgs boson to have a…
We discuss the discovery reach of LEP2 for the Higgs sector of a general extension of the MSSM including a single gauge singlet field. This change introduces a new quartic Higgs boson self-coupling which can increase the masses of the…
Searches for the Standard Model Higgs boson by the four LEP experiments found excess events in two mass ranges: a 2.3 sigma excess around 98 GeV, and an 1.7 sigma excess around 115 GeV. The latter has been discussed widely in the…
We study the implication of triviality on Higgs sector in next to minimal supersymmetric model (NMSSM) using variational field theory. It is shown that mass of the lightest Higgs boson in NMSSM has an upper bound $\sim 10\, M_W$ which is of…

The recent LHC indications of a SM-like Higgs boson near 125 GeV are consistent not only with the Standard Model (SM) but also with Supersymmetry (SUSY). However naturalness arguments disfavour the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model…

Upper bounds on the three neutral scalar Higgs masses are considered in the supersymmetric standard model with a gauge singlet Higgs field. When the lightest Higgs is singlet-dominated the second lightest Higgs is shown to lie near or below…
