Explaining 95 GeV anomalies in the 2-Higgs doublet model type-I

We show how the 2-Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) Type-I can explain some excesses recently seen at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in γγ and τ + τ − final states in turn matching Large Electron Positron (LEP) data in b b ¯ signatures, all anomalies residing around 95 GeV. The explanation to such anomalous data is found in the aforementioned scenario when in inverted mass hierarchy, in two configurations: i) when the lightest CP-even Higgs state is alone capable of reproducing the excesses; ii) when a combination of such a state and the CP-odd Higgs boson is able to do so. To test further this scenario, we present some Benchmark Points (BPs) of it amenable to phenomenological investigation.
