2 Higgs Doublets Models (2HDMs)

2 Higgs doublets, 5 particles: h and H CP-even, A CP-odd, H±

7 free parameters (with minimum assumptions: no CP-violation in Higgs sector,no FCNC)

4 masses1 soft symmetry breaking parametertan β = v2/v1, fraction of the vacuum expectation values of the doubletsα, mixing angle between h and H. Often cos(β − α) is used as parameter, whichcontrols couplings (in particular of H to VV, if →0 then 2HDM→SM)

Classified depending on the structureof the couplings in 4 types

Type-I (Fermiophobic in the zeromixing limit)Type-II (MSSM-like)Lepton-specificFlipped Branco et al, arXiv:1106.0034

Only one among the possible models, but an important benchmark forinterpreting experimental resultsType-II is an approximation for SUSY with a high mass scale
