abstract

We consider the small excesses around 95 GeV found in several searches for a new scalar in $\gamma \gamma$, $\tau \tau$ and $b \bar b$ final states. Instead of trying to accommodate them all, as is usually done in the literature, in the context of a given Standard Model~(SM) extension, we investigate whether it would be possible that one or two of these excesses correspond to an actual new scalar, while the remaining ones are merely statistical fluctuations. To this end, we use as benchmark model the UN2HDM, a SM extension with one scalar doublet, one scalar singlet, and an extra $\text{U}(1)'$ symmetry, which has been previously studied in the context of multiboson cascade decays. We show that most of the possibilities where the excesses in one or two of these channels disappear in the future can be accommodated by type-I or type-III UN2HDMs.

  1. Interpreting Light Scalar Excesses and Heavy Scalar Cascades in the $\mu$-Term Extended NMSSM

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Viable μNMSSM regions can fit the 95 GeV diphoton/bb anomalies and produce H→hhs and A2→hA1→4b cascades near the 650 and (600,400) GeV CMS structures.

  2. Light Scalars in the Extended Georgi-Machacek Model

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A global fit of the Georgi-Machacek and extended Georgi-Machacek models finds that the 95 GeV diphoton and bottom-quark excesses are compatible with the 125 GeV Higgs data, while the ditau excess is not, and it sets u...

  3. Interpretation of 95 GeV Excess within the Georgi-Machacek Model in Light of Positive Definiteness Constraints

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The Georgi-Machacek model keeps viable parameter space for the 95 GeV diphoton and bbbar excesses under positive definiteness constraints, which the paper finds expand the allowed region relative to tree-level bounded...
