abstract

We show that the photon-photon fusion process contributes significantly to the pair production of doubly charged Higgs bosons at the LHC at a level comparable to the Drell-Yan production. We reinterpret the ATLAS lower limit of 570 GeV (420 GeV) on the mass of $\Delta_{L}^{\pm\pm}$ ($\Delta_{R}^{\pm\pm}$) arising from $SU(2)_L$ triplet (singlet) scalar by including the photon initiated process and derive a new lower limit of 748 GeV (570 GeV), assuming that $\Delta^{\pm \pm}$ decays into $e^\pm e^\pm$ 100% of the time. We have also shown that the 5$\sigma$ discovery reach for ${\Delta_{L}^{\pm\pm}}$ (${\Delta_{R}^{\pm\pm}}$) is 846 GeV (783 GeV) with 100 fb$^{-1}$ luminosity at 13 TeV LHC. We derive a somewhat more stringent limit on the mass when the doubly charged scalar arises from higher dimensional representations of $SU(2)_L$.

  1. Revised exclusion limits on doubly charged Higgs bosons from a reanalysis of the ATLAS multi-lepton search at $\sqrt{s} = 13$,TeV

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The four-lepton signal efficiencies in ATLAS's doubly charged Higgs search exceed a strict analytical ceiling, so the corrected expected mass limits are roughly 100 GeV weaker.

  2. Normalizing Flow-Assisted Nested Sampling on Type-II Seesaw Model

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A RealNVP normalizing flow trained inside nested sampling accelerates Bayesian scans of the Type-II seesaw parameter space and yields posterior constraints on scalar masses and couplings.

  3. Vacuum structure of the Babu-Nandi-Tavartkiladze model of neutrino mass generation

    hep-ph 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the BNT neutrino mass model the electroweak vacuum is not generically the global minimum, with stability reducible to two mass inequalities when the quadruplet vev vanishes.

  4. Probing the existence of a new charged vector boson decaying into heavy neutral leptons using ultra-peripheral heavy ion collisions at ATLAS

    hep-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The paper projects that ATLAS with lead-lead ultra-peripheral collisions could exclude or discover light charged vector bosons decaying to heavy neutral leptons in the 5 to 105 GeV mass range.
