A global fit of the Georgi-Machacek and extended Georgi-Machacek models finds that the 95 GeV diphoton and bottom-quark excesses are compatible with the 125 GeV Higgs data, while the ditau excess is not, and it sets upper bounds on the additional scalar masses.

abstract
The Georgi-Machacek Model allows for a large triplet vacuum expectation value (vev) with a custodial symmetric scalar potential. This manifestly leads to large charged Higgs coupling to SM fermions thus enhancing the detection probability of the model at the Large hadron collider. We show that the latest bound from LHC searches on singly charged Higgs scalar decaying to top and bottom quark restricts the triplet vev from above. We demonstrate that the combined limit from theoretical constraints and the latest Higgs data together with this charged Higgs bound can already curb the model parameter space significantly. Further, we propose the charged Higgs decaying to $W^{\pm}$ boson and a SM-like Higgs as a prospective channel to probe the yet unbounded model parameter space at the future run of the LHC. A simple cut-based analysis for this channel has been made showing the parameter region that can be probed with $5\sigma$ significance at the high luminosity LHC run.

Light Scalars in the Extended Georgi-Machacek Model
A global fit of the Georgi-Machacek and extended Georgi-Machacek models finds that the 95 GeV diphoton and bottom-quark excesses are compatible with the 125 GeV Higgs data, while the ditau excess is not, and it sets upper bounds on the additional scalar masses.
