In this study we consider an effective model by introducing two hypothetical real scalars, $H$ and $chi$ - a dark matter candidate, where the masses of these scalars are $2 m_h < m_H < 2 m_t$ and $m_chi approx m_h/2$ with $m_h$ and $m_t$ being the Standard Model Higgs boson and top quark masses respectively. A distortion in the transverse momentum distributions of $h$ in the intermediate region of the spectrum through the processes $p p to H to hchichi$ could be observed in this model. An additional scalar, $S$, has been postulated to explain large $H to hchichi$ branching ratios, assuming $m_h lesssim m_S lesssim m_H-m_h$ and $m_S > 2 m_chi$. Furthermore, a scenario of a two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) is introduced and a detailed proposal at the present energies of the Large Hadron Collider to study the extra CP-even ($h, H$), CP-odd ($A$) and charged ($H^pm$) scalars has been pursued. With possible phenomenological implications, all possible spectra and decay modes for these scalars are discussed. Based on the mass spectrum of $H, A$ and $H^pm$, the production of multi-leptons and $Z$+jets+missing-energy events are predicted. A specific, Type-II 2HDM model is discussed in detail.

The LHC is making strides in the exploration of the properties of the newly discoverd Higgs boson, $h$. In Refs.~cite{vonBuddenbrock:2015ema,Kumar:2016vut,vonBuddenbrock:2016rmr} the compatibility of the proton-proton data reported in the Run I perio d with the presence of a heavy scalar, $H$, with a mass around 270,GeV and its implications were explored. This boson would decay predominantly to $Hrightarrow Sh$, where $S$, is a lighter scalar boson. The production cross-section of $pprightarrow H(rightarrow Sh) + X$ is considerable and it would significantly affect the inclusive rate of $h$. The contamination from this new production mechanism would depend strongly on the final state used to measure the rate of $h$. The contamination in the rate measurement of $Vh(rightarrow boverline{b}), V=Z,W$ is estimated to be small. This statement does not depend strongly on assumptions made on the decay of $S$.
Following a prediction made in Refs.~cite{vonBuddenbrock:2015ema,Kumar:2016vut,vonBuddenbrock:2016rmr}, this paper focuses on multi-lepton signatures arising from two new hypothetical scalar bosons, $H$ and $S$, at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Th ese two new bosons are an extension to the Standard Model (SM) and interact with the SM Higgs boson, $h$. We consider two production modes for $H$, one being gluon fusion and the other being in association with top quarks. The $H to S h$ decay mode is considered, where leptonic final states are studied. The CP properties of $S$ are characterised by considering effective couplings derived from dimension six operators through $SWW$ vertices. The nature of the $S$ boson is considered in two separate contexts. Firstly in a simplified model, it is considered to have Higgs-like couplings. Secondly, we consider a heavy neutrino model and its interactions with the $Z, W$ and $S$ bosons. The predictions of the models are compared both to ATLAS and CMS results at $sqrt{s} = 8$ and $13$~TeV, where appropriate. The data is interpreted using a simplified model where all the signal comes from $H to S h$, assuming $S$ to be Higgs-like, $m_H=270$~GeV and $m_S=150$~GeV. The combined result yields gives a best fit value for the parameter $beta_g$ (the strength of the Yukawa coupling of $H$ to top quarks), $beta_g^2=1.38pm 0.22$. A number of regions of the phase space are suggested to the experiments for further exploration.
We discuss complementarity of discovery reaches of heavier neutral Higgs bosons and charged Higgs bosons at the LHC and the International Linear Collider (ILC) in two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs). We perform a comprehensive analysis on their producti on and decay processes for all types of Yukawa interaction under the softly-broken discrete symmetry which is introduced to avoid flavour changing neutral currents, and we investigate parameter spaces of discovering additional Higgs bosons at the ILC beyond the LHC reach. We find that the 500 GeV run of the ILC with the integrated luminosity of 500 fb^{-1} shows an advantage for discovering the additional Higgs bosons in the region where the LHC cannot discover them with the integrated luminosity of 300 fb^{-1}. For the 1 TeV run of the ILC with the integrated luminosity of 1 ab^{-1}, production processes of an additional Higgs boson associated with the top quark can be useful as discovery channels in some parameter spaces where the LHC with the integrated luminosity of 3000 fb^{-1} cannot reach. It is emphasized that the complementary study at the LHC and the ILC is useful not only to survey additional Higgs bosons at the TeV scale, but also to discriminate types of Yukawa interaction in the 2HDM.

In a composite model of the weak bosons the p-wave bosons are studied. The state with the lowest mass is identified with the boson, which has been observed at the LHC. Specific properties of the excited bosons are studied, in particular their decays into weak bosons and photons. Such decays might have been observed recently with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider.
The search for heavy Higgs bosons is an essential step in the exploration of the Higgs sector and in probing the Supersymmetric parameter space. This paper discusses the constraints on the M(A) and tan beta parameters derived from the bounds on the d ifferent decay channels of the neutral H and A bosons accessible at the LHC, in the framework of the phenomenological MSSM. The implications from the present LHC results and the expected sensitivity of the 14 TeV data are discussed in terms of the coverage of the [M(A) - tan beta] plane. New channels becoming important at 13 and 14 TeV for low values of tan beta are characterised in terms of their kinematics and the reconstruction strategies. The effect of QCD systematics, SUSY loop effects and decays into pairs of SUSY particles on these constraints are discussed in details.
