DESCRIPTION:We consider the Higgs sector in extensions of the Minimal Supe
 rsymmetric Standard Model by higher-dimension operators in the context of 
 Higgs searches at the LHC 7 TeV run. Such an effective field theory (EFT) 
 approach\, also referred to as BMSSM\, allows for a model-independent desc
 ription that may correspond to the combined effects of additional supersym
 metric sectors\, such as heavy singlets\, triplets or gauge bosons\, in wh
 ich the supersymmetry breaking mass splittings can be treated as a perturb
 ation. We consider the current LHC dataset\, to set exclusion limits on a 
 large class of BMSSM models. We also present projections for integrated lu
 minosities of 5 and 15 fb−1\, assuming that the ATLAS and CMS collaborat
 ions will combine their results in each channel. Our study shows that the 
 majority of the parameter space will be probed at the 2σ level with 15 fb
 −1 of data. A non-observation of a Higgs boson with about 10 fb−1 of d
 ata will point towards a Higgs SUSY spectrum with intermediate tan β ( 
 ≈ a few to 10) and a light SM-like Higgs with somewhat enhanced coupling
 s to bottom and tau pairs. We define a number of BMSSM benchmark scenarios
  and analyze the possible exclusion/discovery channels and the projected r
 equired luminosity to probe them. We also discuss the results of the EFT f
 ramework for two specific models\, one with a singlet superfield and one w
 ith SU(2)L triplets.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=
