Large pseudoscalar Yukawa couplings in the complex 2HDM

Abstract

We start by presenting the current status of a complex flavour conserving two-Higgs doublet model. We will focus on some very interesting scenarios where unexpectedly the light Higgs couplings to leptons and to b-quarks can have a large pseudoscalar component with a vanishing scalar component. Predictions for the allowed parameter space at end of the next run with a total collected luminosity of 300fb1300 \, fb^{-1} and 3000fb13000 \, fb^{-1} are also discussed. These scenarios are not excluded by present data and most probably will survive the next LHC run. However, a measurement of the mixing angle ϕτ\phi_\tau, between the scalar and pseudoscalar component of the 125 GeV Higgs, in the decay hτ+τh \to \tau^+ \tau^- will be able to probe many of these scenarios, even with low luminosity. Similarly, a measurement of ϕt\phi_t in the vertex tˉth\bar t t h could help to constrain the low tanβ\tan \beta region in the Type I model.
