YUN JIANG (UC Davis)06/05/2014, 14:30As well known, the LHC8 data clearly favors a fairly Standard Model (SM)-like Higgs boson with mass of 125.5 \pm 2.5 GeV, however, a natural curiosity whether more than one Higgs boson, particularly the charged Higgs, are existed in Nature motivates us to probe new physics beyond the SM (BSM). As the simplest extension in the BSM, Two-Higgs-Doublet Models (2HDM) is the focus of our great...Go to contribution page

Andrea Peterson (University of Wisconsin - Madison)06/05/2014, 15:00We explore the possibility of probing the scalar potential of the CP-conserving Two Higgs Doublet Model through the production of a light-heavy Higgs boson pair. The $hH$ process is complementary to $hh$ production in providing information about the triscalar couplings. Using multivariate analysis, we determine the LHC14 discovery reach in the $b\bar{b}\gamma \gamma$ and $h h\gamma \gamma...Go to contribution page

Felix Kling (University of Arizona)06/05/2014, 15:15Models of electroweak symmetry breaking, with an extended Higgs sector, are theoretically well motivated. In this study, we focus on the Two Higgs Doublet Model, with a low energy spectrum containing scalars $H$, a pseudoscalar $A$ and charged scalars $H^{\pm}$. We look at exotic decays of those extra Higgses into a light Higgs and a gauge boson: $A/H \rightarrow HZ/AZ$ and $H^{\pm}...Go to contribution page

Baris Altunkaynak (University of Oklahoma)06/05/2014, 15:30The next step in understanding the mechanism behind electroweak symmetry breaking is to look for signs of a second Higgs doublet which is required by some of the well motivated extensions of the Standard Model. In a general two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) there are flavor changing neutral currents at tree level. Experimental results limit the size of these off-diagonal Yukawa couplings but...Go to contribution page

Dr Po-Yen Tseng (NTHU)06/05/2014, 15:45We perform global fits to the general two-Higgs doublet models (2HDMs) with generalized couplings using the most updated data from ATLAS, CMS, and Tevatron. We include both scenarios with CP-conserving and CP-violating couplings. By relaxing the requirement on the discrete symmetries that are often imposed on the Yukawa couplings in order to prohibit the tree-level flavour changing neutral...Go to contribution page
