الوصف: Combination of recent measurements for $h \to Z \gamma$ from ALTLAS and CMS shows an excess that the ratio of the observed and standard model (SM) predicted branching ratios $\mu = (\sigma\cdot{\cal B})_{\mathrm{obs}}/(\sigma\cdot{\cal B})_{\mathrm{SM}}$ is $2.2\pm 0.7$. If confirmed, it is a signal of new physics (NP) beyond SM. We study NP explanation for this excess. In general, for a given model it also affects the process $h \to \gamma \gamma$. Since measured branching ratio for this process agrees with SM prediction well, the model is constrained severely. We find that a minimally fermion singlets and doublet extended NP model can explain simultaneously the current data for $h \to Z \gamma$ and $h\to \gamma\gamma$. There are two solutions. One is the SM amplitude $c_Z^{\text{SM}}$ is enhanced by $\delta c_Z$ for $h \to Z \gamma$ to the observed value, but the $h \to \gamma \gamma$ amplitude $c_\gamma^{\text{SM}} +\delta c_\gamma$ is decreased to $-c_\gamma^{\text{SM}}$ to give the observed branching ratio. This seems to be a contrived solution that although cannot be ruled out simply using branching ratio measurements. We, however, find another solution which naturally enhances the $h \to Z \gamma$ to the measured value, but keeps the $h \to \gamma\gamma$ close to its SM prediction. We also comment on some phenomenology of these new fermions.
