Abstract
In the general Higgs portal like models, the extra neutral scalar, $S$, can mix with the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson, $H$. We perform an exploratory study focusing on the direct search for such a light singlet $S$ at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). After careful study of the SM background, we find the process $pp\rightarrow t\bar{t}S$ followed by $S\rightarrow b\bar{b}$ can be used to investigate $S$ with mass in the $20Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, published version
