Exploring extended Higgs sectors via pair production at the LHC

Blog Article

Abstract Intakes Higgs sectors extended by electroweakly charged scalars can be explored by scalar pair production at the LHC.We consider a fermiophobic scenario, with decays into a pair of gauge bosons, and a fermiophilic one, with decays into top and bottom quarks.After establishing the current bounds on simplified models, Gas Hob we focus on an SU(5)/SO(5) composite Higgs model.This first exploration demonstrates the need for dedicated searches at current and future colliders.
