Probing LHC Higgs Signals from Extended Electroweak Gauge Group

Abstract

We study the effects of the extended electroweak gauge sector on the signal strengths of the Higgs boson at the LHC. Extension of the Higgs sector associate with the extension of the electroweak gauge symmetry. In our setup, there are two neutral Higgs states ($h$, $H$) and three new gauge bosons ($W'^{\pm}$, $Z'$). We assume the lightest scalar, $h$, is what LHC found and its mass is 125 GeV. We find the enhancement of $μ(gg \to h \to γγ)$. On the other hand, other decay processes are same as or smaller than the SM expectation.
