The CP-violating type-II 2HDM and Charged Higgs boson benchmarks

Understand

We review and update the interpretation of the 125 GeV scalar as the lightest Higgs boson of the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model, allowing for CP violation in the potential.

• The detection of a charged Higgs boson would exclude the Standard Model.
• Proposed benchmarks for charged-Higgs searches in the channel pp\to H^+W^-X\to W^+W^-H_1X are reviewed and updated.
