Diphoton Rate of the Standard-Model-Like Higgs Boson in the Extra U(1) Extended MSSM
Abstract
Motivated by the excess in the diphoton production rate of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), we investigate the possibility that one of the CP-even Higgs bosons of the extra U(1) extended minimal supersymmetric standard model can give a consistent result. We scan the parameter space for a standard-model-like Higgs boson such that the mass is in the range of 124-127 GeV and the production rate σ xB of the WW*, ZZ* modes are consistent with the standard model (SM) values while that of γγ is enhanced relative to the SM value. We find that the SM-like Higgs boson is mostly the lightest CP-even Higgs boson and it has a strong mixing with the second lightest one, which is largely singlet-like. The implications on Zγ production rate and properties of the other Higgs bosons are also studied.
