The Higgs boson may decay predominantly into a hidden sector, producing lepton jets instead of the standard Higgs signatures. We propose a search strategy for such a signal at hadron colliders. A promising channel is the associated…
We argue that the $125 GeV$ "Higgs" particle is unlikely to arise as a fermion- antifermion composite if the underlying dynamics is a vectorial gauge theory. The reason is that the lightest scalar in such theories is heavier than the…
The original littlest Higgs model with universal fermion couplings is found to be consistent with precision electroweak data but is strongly constrained by Tevatron limits on the predicted centi-weak Z' boson. A possible signal observed by…
Discovering the Higgs boson is one of the primary goals of both the Tevatron and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The present status of the Higgs search is reviewed and future prospects for discovery at the Tevatron and LHC are considered.…
The investigation of the dynamics responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking is one of the prime tasks of experiments at present and future colliders. Experiments at the Tevatron ppbar Collider and at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC)…
We investigate the possibility of a multi-Higgs doublet model where the lightest neutral Higgs boson ($h^0$) decouples from the fermion sector. We are partially motivated by the four $\ell^+\ell^-\gamma\gamma$ events with…
In the following, we describe preliminary results of searches for non-SM higgs bosons at the CDF and D0 experiments. Both experiments use data obtained in pp-bar collisions at the Tevatron at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV.
We evaluate the prospects for detecting a non-standard light Higgs boson with a significant branching ratio to two photons, in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron. We derive the reach for several channels: $2\gamma$ inclusive, $2\gamma+1$ jet…
We present combined results on the search for neutral supersymmetric Higgs bosons with data collected at the CDF and D0 experiments. Data were collected in proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV during Run II of the Tevatron.…
We derive the first bound on the value of the Higgs boson non-minimal coupling to the Ricci scalar. We show that the recent discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN implies that the non-minimal coupling is smaller…
A search for direct production of Higgs bosons in the di-tau decay mode is performed with 86.3 +/- 3.5 pb^-1 of data collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab during the 1994-1995 data taking period of the Tevatron. We search for…
Searching for and potential discovery of Higgs boson(s) both within and beyond the standard model is perhaps the most visible physics goal of the current Fermilab Tevatron program. In this proceeding, recent results from both the CDF and…
We analyze the Tevatron reach for neutral Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), using current exclusion limits on the Standard Model Higgs. We study four common benchmark scenarios for the soft…
I review the physics of the Higgs sector in the Standard Model and its minimal supersymmetric extension, the MSSM. I will discuss the prospects for discovering the Higgs particles at the upgraded Tevatron, at the Large Hadron Collider, and…
Luminosity upgrades of the Fermilab Tevatron pbar-p collider have been shown to allow experimental detection of a Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson up to $m_{H_{SM}}\sim 120$ GeV via $WH_{SM} \to \ell\nu b\bar{b}$ events. This limit nearly…
A variant of the conventional Higgs model is proposed which separates the physics of the Higgs decay modes from the problem of fermion mass generation. The lowest mass Higgs boson has no significant bottom decay mode but a charm and up…
In the minimal anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking (AMSB) model, a universal contribution $m_{0}$ to all the scalar masses is introduced in order to avoid the negative slepton mass problem. The Higgs spectrum and couplings are…
Higgs bosons from an extended Higgs sector, such as a two-Higgs-doublet model, can have greatly enhanced coupling to the bottom quark. Producing such a Higgs boson in association with a single high-p_T bottom quark via g b -> h b allows for…
We study supersymmetric QCD in the conformal window as a laboratory for unparticle physics, and analyze couplings between the unparticle sector and the Higgs sector. These couplings can lead to the unparticle sector being pushed away from…
Higgs bosons can be searched for in the channels $p\bar p/pp\to t\bar tH+X$ at the Tevatron and the LHC. We have calculated the QCD corrections to these processes in the Standard Model at next-to-leading order. The higher-order corrections…
