Projections for Two Higgs Doublet Models at the LHC and ILC: A Snowmass White Paper

Abstract

The discovery of the 125 GeV Higgs boson and the measurement of its branching ratios has initiated the exploration of the electroweak symmetry breaking sector. There have been numerous studies exploring the restrictions these results place on the parameter space of two Higgs doublet models. We extend these results to include the full data set and study the expected sensitivity that can be obtained with 300 and 3000 inverse femtobarn of integrated luminosity. In addition, searches for a heavy Standard Model Higgs boson are also considered. It is shown that the nonobservation of such a Higgs boson can substantially narrow the allowed regions of parameter space in two Higgs doublet models. Finally, projections for the ILC at the center of mass energy 250, 500, and 1000 GeV are investigated.
