Description

Ten years of LHC Higgs data indicate that the properties of the observed Higgs boson are consistent (within the precision of the experimental data) with the predictions of the Standard Model (SM). Thus, any viable supersymmetric extension of the SM must incorporate a SM-like Higgs boson. This can be achieved either via the decoupling limit (where all additional Higgs scalars have masses above, say, 500 GeV) or in the so-called Higgs alignment limit without decoupling. Plausible scenarios in the frameworks of the MSSM and the NMSSM are described and discussed.
