Search for the charged Higgs boson in Z\u3csup\u3e0\u3c/sup\u3e decay

Abstract

\u3cp\u3eWe have searched for the pair produced charged Higgs particles in the decays of Z\u3csup\u3e0\u3c/sup\u3e for the decay channels of H\u3csup\u3e+\u3c/sup\u3eH\u3csup\u3e-\u3c/sup\u3e→τ\u3csup\u3e+\u3c/sup\u3eντ\u3csup\u3e-\u3c/sup\u3e ν, H\u3csup\u3e+\u3c/sup\u3eH\u3csup\u3e-\u3c/sup\u3e→τνcs and H\u3csup\u3e+\u3c/sup\u3eH\u3csup\u3e-\u3c/sup\u3e→cscs. The data sample analyzed corresponds to approximately 50 000 hadronic decays of Z\u3csup\u3e0\u3c/sup\u3e. A lower limit of 36.5 GeV is obtained at the 95% confidence level for the mass of charged Higgs particle, independent of its decay branching ratio.\u3c/p\u3
