Improving the discovery potential of charged Higgs bosons at Tevatron Run

  • 1. European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Theory Division, Geneva (Switzerland)

Description

By exploiting the full process pp-bar→tb-barH-, in place of the standard Monte Carlo procedure of factorising production and decay, pp-bar→tt-bar followed by t-bar→b-barH-, we show how to improve the discovery reach of the Tevatron (Run 2) in charged Higgs boson searches, in the large tan β region. This is achieved in conjunction with dedicated cuts on a 'transverse mass' distribution sensitive to the Higgs boson mass and to 'polarisation' effects in the H- →τ-ν-barτ decay channel. (author)
