Suppression of $H\to VV$ decay channels in the Georgi-Machacek model

Abstract

The $H\to ZZ$ decay mode is usually considered as one of the most promising ways to discover new heavy neutral scalar $H$. We show that in the Georgi-Machacek model it is possible to get large enhancement of double SM-like Higgs boson production due to $H$ decays while $ZZ$ and $WW$ decay channels could be highly suppressed.
