abstract
A search for a narrow-width resonance decaying into two Higgs bosons, each decaying into a bottom quark-antiquark pair, is presented. The search is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s}=$ 13 TeV recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. No evidence for such a signal is observed. Upper limits are set on the product of the production cross section for the resonance and the branching fraction for the selected decay mode in the resonance mass range from 260 to 1200 GeV.

Light scalars within the $\mathcal{CP}$-conserving Aligned-two-Higgs-doublet model
All seven light-scalar scenarios of the CP-conserving aligned two-Higgs-doublet model contain sizeable parameter regions compatible with current collider and flavour data, with the lightest new scalars bounded by LEP and LHC searches.
