The paper discusses the "double-aligned THDMs", focusing on the coupling between the discovered Higgs boson and Standard Model particles. It investigates the constraints and prospects of this model using measurements from flavor experiments and data from LHC. It finds that most of the parameter space has been excluded by current LHC data, but there is still potential for research in the high-luminosity LHC.
We consider two Higgs doublet models (THDMs) with both the Higgs potential and Yukawa interactions being aligned, which we call ???double-aligned THDMs.??? In this scenario, coupling constants of the discovered Higgs boson to the Standard Model (SM) particles are identical to those of the SM Higgs boson, and flavor changing neutral currents via neutral Higgs bosons do not appear at tree level. We investigate current constraints and future prospects of the model by using measurements from flavor experiments and data of multilepton final states at LHC. Especially, we focus on the electroweak pair production of the additional Higgs bosons with their masses below 2mt. We find that the most of the parameter space are already excluded by the current LHC data when the leptonic decays of the additional Higgs bosons are dominant, which can be interpreted to the scenario in the Type-X THDM as a special case. We also clarify the parameter region where the high-luminosity LHC can explore, and demonstrate the reconstruction of the masses of additional Higgs bosons from the bb??????????? final states in a few benchmark points.
