Probing a 96 GeV Higgs boson in the di-photon channel at the LHC

The same mass range concurs with a ∼2σ local excess in the bb¯ invariant mass spectrum in four-jet events collected at LEP. In this contribution we show that at 1σ level the 2HDM type-III can perfectly fit both excesses simultaneously, while satisfying all experimental and theoretical constraints.

Abstract

Recently the CMS collaboration reported a ∼3σ local excess in the di-photon spectrum at 96 GeV. The same mass range concurs with a ∼2σ local excess in the bb¯ invariant mass spectrum in four-jet events collected at LEP. In this contribution we show that at 1σ level the 2HDM type-III can perfectly fit both excesses simultaneously, while satisfying all experimental and theoretical constraints.
