The Higgs particles are for the MSSM. In the Standard Model, there is a single complex Higgs doublet that correspodns to both Hu and Hd. It has spin 0, so chirality does not enter it.
The neutrino here is a right-handed neutrino. It has not been observed, but it fits the unbroken ((N)MS)SM very well. There is a theory called the Seesaw Model that states that it has its own mass term:
mn*(N.N)
where mn is very large, somewhere 1012 GeV. This large mass combines with more ordinary Higgs-generated masses to make the observed neutrinos have very low masses.
Looking at the Higgs interactions, they take surprisingly simple forms:
(U*).Hu.Q, (D*).Hd.Q, (N*).Hu.L, (E*).Hd.L, Hu.Hd
In the NMSSM,
Hu.Hd becomes Hu.Hd.Hs, Hs.Hs.Hs
with the singlet Higgs particle Hs.
Here's another pattern:
(Weak hypercharge) = (some integer) + (QCD 1: 0, 3: 2/3, 3*: -1/3) + (WIS odd: 0, even: 1/2)
Also, the weak-hypercharge values add up to zero for each handedness of each generation of elementary fermions, and likewise for the MSSM Higgs particles.
