Search for charged Higgs bosons in CDF

  • 1. Rutgers--the State Univ., Piscataway, NJ (United States)

Description

We present results of a direct search for charged Higgs production from p anti p collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV at Fermilab's Tevatron collider using the CDF detector. An expanded Higgs sector containing charged Higgs bosons is a persistent feature of candidate theories to replace the Standard Model. The minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, for example predicts that the dominant decay mode of the top quark is t → H+b → τ+ vb for large values of tan Β. We use the hadronic decays of the tau lepton in this channel to exclude charged Higgs bosons with MH± < 140 GeV/c2 for large tanΒ
