Abstract
We investigate a model of SU(2) ⊗ U(1) singlet scalars coupled to Standard Model. We point out that for the case of the maximal mixing between singlet scalars and the standard Higgs boson, the Higgs boson production cross-section is smaller than the standard Higgs boson production by a factor of 1/(N+1), where N is the number of singlet scalars. For the case of large mixing, Higgs boson could be unobservable at LHC. However, there is also the possibility for the observation of scalar singlets at LHC. As a semi-realistic example, we discuss supersymmetric SU(2) ⊗ U(1) electroweak model with an additional singlet chiral superfield.Keywords
