We present a set of recommendations for the presentation of LHC results on searches for new physics, which are aimed at providing a more efficient flow of scientific information between the experimental collaborations and the rest of the high energy physics community, and at facilitating the interpretation of the results in a wide class of models. Implementing these recommendations would aid the full exploitation of the physics potential of the LHC.
Updated results on the search of Higgs bosons at the LHC with up to 17/fb of data have just been presented by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. New constraints are provided by the LHCb and XENON experiments with the observation of the rare decay B_s -> mu+mu- and new limits on dark matter direct detection. In this paper, we update and extend the results on the implications of these data on the phenomenological Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (pMSSM) by using high statistics, flat scans of its 19 parameters. The new LHC data on bb and tau tau decays of the lightest Higgs state and the new CMS limits from the tau tau searches for the heavier Higgs states set stronger constraints on the pMSSM parameter space.

We study the LHC phenomenology of a general class of Private Higgs (PH) models, in which fermions obtain their masses from their own Higgs doublets with $op(1)$ Yukawa couplings, and the mass hierarchy is translated into a dynamical chain of vacuum e xpectation values. This is accomplished by introducing a number of light gauge-singlet scalars, the darkons, some of which could play the role of dark matter. These models allow for substantial modifications to the decays of the lightest Higgs boson, for instance through mixing with TeV-scale PH fields and light darkons: the simplest version of the model predicts the ratios of partial widths to satisfy $G(h to VV^*)_{text{PH}}/G(h to VV^*)_{text{SM}} approx G(h to gg)_{text{PH}}/G(h to gg)_{text{SM}} leq 1$ and $G(h to bbar b)_{text{PH}}/G(h to bbar b)_{text{SM}} sim op(1)$, where the inequalities are saturated only in the absence of Higgs mixing with light darkons. An extension of the model proposed previously for generating nonzero neutrino masses can also contribute substantially to $h to gg$ without violating electroweak precision constraints. If the Higgs coupling to fermions is found to deviate from the Standard Model (SM) expectation, then the PH model may be a viable candidate for extending the SM.
We investigate the possible collider signatures of a new Higgs in simple extensions of the Standard Model where baryon number is a local symmetry spontaneously broken at the low scale. We refer to this new Higgs as Baryonic Higgs. This Higgs has pecu liar properties since it can decay into all Standard Model particles, the leptophobic gauge boson, and the vector-like quarks present in these theories to ensure anomaly cancellation. We investigate in detail the constraints from the $gamma gamma$, $Z gamma$, $Z Z$, and $W W$ searches at the Large Hadron Collider, needed to find a lower bound on the scale at which baryon number is spontaneously broken. The di-photon channel turns out to be a very sensitive probe in the case of small scalar mixing and can severely constrain the baryonic scale. We also study the properties of the leptophobic gauge boson in order to understand the testability of these theories at the LHC.
Recent excesses across different search modes of the collaborations at the LHC seem to indicate the presence of a Higgs-like scalar particle at 125 GeV. Using the current data sets, we review and update analyses addressing the extent to which this st ate is compatible with the Standard Model, and provide two contextual answers for how it might instead fit into alternative scenarios with enlarged electroweak symmetry breaking sectors.
