The recent LHC indications of a SM-like Higgs boson near 125 GeV are consistent not only with the Standard Model (SM) but also with Supersymmetry (SUSY). However naturalness arguments disfavour the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We consider the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) with a SM-like Higgs boson near 125 GeV involving relatively light stops and gluinos below 1 TeV in order to satisfy naturalness requirements. We are careful to ensure that the chosen values of couplings do not become non perturbative below the grand unification (GUT) scale, although we also examine how these limits may be extended by the addition of extra matter to the NMSSM at the two-loop level. We then propose four sets of benchmark points corresponding to the SM-like Higgs boson being the lightest or the second lightest Higgs state in the NMSSM or the NMSSM-with-extra-matter. With the aid of these benchmark points we discuss how the NMSSM Higgs boson near 125 GeV may be distinguished from the SM Higgs boson in future LHC searches.

Probing new physics in the Boosted $HH \to b\bar{b}\gamma\gamma$ channel at the LHC
A dedicated boosted-jet category in HH→bbγγ is projected to narrow the κ2V constraint to [-0.4, 2.6] at 95% CL and improve heavy-resonance limits by 1–2x at 308 fb⁻¹.

Is the observed 125 GeV Higgs boson expected to be SM-like in the NMSSM?
Analysis of the NMSSM shows that the 125 GeV Higgs is not expected to be exactly SM-like, with deviations in signal strengths that can be correlated or anti-correlated between bosonic and fermionic channels.
