Constraints on the charged Higgs boson of the two Higgs doublet model type III

Abstract

The D0 experiment has reported a direct search for a charged Higgs boson produced by $q \bar q$ annihilation and decaying to $t \bar b$ final state, in the $180 \leq M_{H^+} \leq 300$ GeV mass range. The analysis has lead to upper limits on the production cross section in the framework of the two Higgs doublet model types I, II and III. We compare the predictions of two different scenarios in the framework of the two Higgs doublet type III to the cross section limits reported by D0 collaboration, and we obtain constraints on the charged Higgs mass, for the case when the charged Higgs mass is bigger than the top quark mass. Also, searches for the charged Higgs boson with a mass smaller than top quark mass are considered, we discuss the possible limits on the charged Higgs boson mass obtained from measurements of the ratio $R_\sigma=\sigma_{t \bar t}^{l+jets}/\sigma_{t \bar t}^{dileptons}$ within the two Higgs doublet model type III.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures, version to be publishe
