Abstract:

We consider the implications of a Higgs at around 125 GeV and with an enhanced gammagamma rate for the MSSM.
The relatively large Higgs mass favors a large value of tanbeta and third generation squarks, as well as trilinear terms, in the TeV range. The squarks cannot enhance sizably the Higgs to gamma gamma rate. However, we show that an enhancement of the di-photon decay rate may be obtained for light and strongly mixed third generation sleptons. We analyse the implications of this model at collider proposing a new channel to look for staus at the 8 TeV LHC.
