Double Higgs peak in the minimal SUSY B-L model

Abstract

Motivated by a $\sim 3σ$ excess recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC around a mass of order $\sim 137$ GeV in $ZZ\to 4l$ and $γγ$ samples, we analyse the discovery potential of a second neutral Higgs boson in the Supersymmetric $B-L$ extension of the Standard Model (BLSSM) at the CERN machine. We confirm that a double Higgs peak structure can be generated in this framework, with CP-even Higgs boson masses at $\sim125$ GeV and $\sim137$ GeV, unlike the case of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM).
