Description

In the Type-I 2HDM, all the five new physical Higgs states can be fairly light, $\mathcal{O}$(100) GeV or less, without conflicting with current data from the direct Higgs boson searches and the B-physics measurements. In this talk, I will discuss how the new neutral and the charged Higgs bosons of the model can be simultaneously observable in the $multi-b$ final state, resulting from the electro-weak (EW) production. Since the parameter space configurations where this is achievable are precluded in the other, more extensively pursued, 2HDM Types, experimental validation of our findings would be a clear indication that the true underlying Higgs sector in nature is the Type-I 2HDM.
