Theoretical arguments and lattice simulations suggest that, beside the known resonance of mass $m_h=$ 125 GeV, the Higgs field might exhibit a second resonance with a larger mass $(M_H)^{\rm theor} = 690 \pm 10 ~({\rm stat}) \pm 20 ~({\rm…
It has been recently proposed that, besides the known resonance with mass $m_h\sim$ 125 GeV, the Higgs field could exhibit a new excitation with a larger mass $M_h$ related by $M^2_h\sim m^2_h \ln (\Lambda_s/M_h)$, where $\Lambda_s$ is the…
In Veltman's original view, the Standard Model with a large Higgs particle mass of about 1 TeV was the natural completion of non-renormalizable Glashow model. This mass was thus a second threshold for weak interactions, as the W mass was…
An alternative to the idea of a metastable electroweak vacuum would be an initial restriction to the pure scalar sector of the Standard Model, but describing spontaneous symmetry breaking consistently with studies indicating that there are…
As an alternative to the metastability of the electroweak vacuum, resulting from perturbative calculations, one can consider a non-perturbative effective potential which, as at the beginning of the Standard Model, is restricted to the pure…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking through the Higgs field has been experimentally confirmed as a basic ingredient of the Standard Model. However, the origin of the phenomenon may not be entirely clear, because, in perturbation theory, the…
Recent experimental hints from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in di-photon and partially in the $\tau^+\tau^-$ final states suggest the possible existence of an additional Higgs boson with a mass around 95 GeV. Interestingly, these…
Recent searches by the CMS collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the `diphoton plus $b\bar{b}$ final state' have revealed an excess near 650 GeV, which might indicate the presence of a (broad) heavy resonance decaying into a…
The ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC have reported an excess of diphoton events with invariant mass around 750 GeV, with local significance of about $3.6 \sigma$ and $2.6 \sigma$, respectively. We entertain the possibility that this…
Recently, the ATLAS and CMS collaborations have pointed out the possible existence of a new resonance with a mass around 750 GeV. We investigate the possibility to identify this new resonance with a spin zero field responsible for the…
We use the most recent data on the Higgs-like resonance h observed at 125 GeV to derive information about the mass of the heavier Higgs particles predicted by Minimal Supersymmetry. We treat as independent parameters the couplings of h to…
Perturbative calculations predict that the Standard Model (SM) effective potential should have a new minimum, well beyond the Planck scale, much deeper than the electroweak vacuum. As it is not obvious that gravitational effects can get so…
The 8 TeV LHC Higgs search data just released indicates the existence of a scalar resonance with mass ~ 125 GeV. We examine the implications of the data reported by ATLAS, CMS and the Tevatron collaborations on understanding the properties…
An evidence for a diphoton resonance at a mass of 750 GeV has been observed in the data collected at the LHC run at a center of mass energy of 13 TeV. We explore several interpretations of this signal in terms of Higgs-like resonances in a…
A search for a new heavy scalar resonance (X) decaying into the 125 GeV standard model Higgs boson (H) and a new scalar particle (Y) in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is presented. The analysis is performed…
Over the last few years, the CMS and ATLAS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have reported excesses that could hint at several new scalar resonances. Although none of them has touched the discovery level, at least two of…
We present an alternative interpretation within the Standard Model of the new LHC resonance at $125 \; GeV$. We further elaborate on our previous proposal that the resonance at 125 GeV could be interpreted as a pseudoscalar meson with…
Diboson resonance with mass around 2 TeV in the dijet invariant mass spectrum is reported by ATLAS experiment in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV. We propose that the candidate of resonance is a heavy neutral Higgs $H^0$ or…
The aim of the present note is to compare the recent LHC data at $\sqrt{s} =13 \,TeV$ with our previous theoretical proposal that the true Higgs boson $H_T$ should be a broad heavy resonance with mass around $750 \, GeV$. We focus on the…
We explore the possibility of explaining the recent $\sim 750$ GeV excesses observed by ATLAS and CMS in the $\gamma\gamma$ spectrum in the context of a compelling theory of Naturalness. The potential spin-zero resonance responsible for the…
