NMSSM with correct relic density and an additional 95 GeV Higgs boson
read the original abstract
We investigate whether it is possible within the NMSSM to describe simultaneously a correct dark matter relic density complying with the latest null results from the LZ experiment, an extra Higgs boson with a mass of ~95 GeV visible in the bb channel at LEP and the diphoton channel at the LHC, and the deviation of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon from its value within the Standard Model. We find that this is still possible for a variety of dark matter annihilation mechanisms, for singlino-like but also bino-like lightest supersymmetric particles. We show the signal rates of the extra Higgs boson and the dark matter detection rates as function of the dark matter mass and annihilation mechanism. The dark matter direct detection cross section may well fall below the neutrino floor. The masses of the lightest electroweakly interacting supersymmetric particles are typically not far above 100 GeV, but not excluded due to unconventional decays.

Interpretation of LHC excesses at 95 GeV and 152 GeV in an extended Georgi-Machacek model
A minimally extended Georgi-Machacek model accommodates the LHC excesses at 95 GeV and 152 GeV while preserving the 125 GeV Higgs signal and the electroweak rho parameter near unity.

Interpreting Light Scalar Excesses and Heavy Scalar Cascades in the $\mu$-Term Extended NMSSM
Viable regions in the μNMSSM accommodate the 95 GeV excesses within 2σ and allow heavy CP-even and CP-odd scalars to produce cascades close to current CMS sensitivity.
