Is the resonance at 125 GeV the Higgs boson

TLDR
The recently discovered resonance at 125 GeV has properties remarkably close to those of the Standard Model Higgs boson as discussed by the authors, and it has been shown that the resonance has properties similar to the Higgs Boson's properties.

Flavor Violating Higgs Decays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors study a class of nonstandard interactions of the newly discovered 125 GeV Higgs-like resonance that are especially interesting probes of new physics: flavor violating Higgs couplings to leptons and quarks.

Global fit to Higgs signal strengths and couplings and implications for extended Higgs sectors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the combined confidence level contours for the signal strengths in the (gluon fusion + ttH associated production) versus (vector boson fusion plus VH associated manufacturing) space.

Large Mass Hierarchy from a Small Extra Dimension

TL;DR: In this paper, the weak scale is generated from the Planck scale through an exponential hierarchy, but this exponential arises not from gauge interactions but from the background metric, which is a slice of spacetime.

Broken Symmetries and the Masses of Gauge Bosons

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the spin-one quanta of some of the gauge fields acquire mass; the longitudinal degrees of freedom of these particles (which would be absent if their mass were zero) go over into the Goldstone bosons when the coupling tends to zero.

Broken Symmetry and the Mass of Gauge Vector Mesons

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that in certain cases vector mesons do indeed acquire mass when the vacuum is degenerate with respect to a compact Lie group, and that strong interaction physics originates from massive gauge fields related to a system of conserved currents.
