Abstract
In the Majoron models the SU(2) Higgs doublet can decay invisibly into a Majoron pair via its mixing with a singlet. An analysis of the CERN LEP data shows the invisible decay mode to be more visible than the SM decay. For these models, the dominantly doublet Higgs field is shown to have a mass limit within ±6 GeV of the SM limit irrespective of the model parameters. But the dominantly singlet one can be arbitrarily light for a sufficiently small mixing angle.
