Abstract The Higgs boson spectrum of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model is examined. The model includes a singlet Higgs field S in addition to the two Higgs doublets of the minimal extension. ‘Natural’ values of the parameters of the model are motivated by their renormalization group running and the vacuum stability. The qualitative features of the Higgs boson masses are dependent on how strongly the Peccei–Quinn U (1) symmetry of the model is broken, measured by the self-coupling of the singlet field in the superpotential. We explore the Higgs boson masses and their couplings to gauge bosons for various representative scenarios.

The Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model reviewed (2009, methodology): “Here we present the one-loop results of the gauge couplings and the superpotential parameters λ and κ as well as yt in the case of a CP-conserving Higgs sector [104].”
Dark Matter through the Higgs portal (2019, background): “In a large area of the parameter space, the Higgs sector of the NMSSM reduces to the one of the MSSM [576–582] but there is an interesting possibility that is still viable: one of the lighter neutral Higgs bosons, either the CP–even h1 or the CP–odd a1, is very light, with a mass of a few to a few t”
