VARIOUS MODELS MIMICKING THE SM HIGGS BOSON
The new particle around 125 GeV observed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is almost consistent with the standard model (SM) Higgs boson, except that the diphoton decay mode may be excessive. We summarize a number of possibilities. While at the LHC the dominant production mechanism for the Higgs boson of SM and some other extensions is via the gluon fusion process, the alternative vector-boson fusion (VBF) is more sensitive to electroweak symmetry breaking. Using the well-known dijet-tagging technique to single out the VBF mechanism, we investigate potential of VBF to discriminate a number of models suggested to give an enhanced inclusive diphoton production rate.
