Description
We have studied the capabilities of the SDC detector to discover a charged Higgs boson in the decay t → H+b for the particular case mt = 250 GeV/c2 and mH± = 150 GeV/c2. The two methods investigated both tag t anti t events by demanding a high-pt lepton and two identified b-quark jets. In the first technique we search for an excess of τ leptons from H± decays; in the second, we look for a peak in the two-jet mass distribution resulting from H+ → c anti s. In combination, these two techniques allow discovery of such a charged Higgs boson over the entire interesting range of two-Higgs-doublet model parameter space. 8 refs., 11 figs., 2 tabs
