abstract

Charged Higgs bosons produced either in top-quark decays or in association with a top-quark, subsequently decaying via $H^{\pm} \to \tau^{\pm}\nu_{\tau}$, are searched for in 140 $\text{fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector. Depending on whether the top-quark produced together with the $H^{\pm}$ decays hadronically or semi-leptonically, the search targets $\tau$+jets or $\tau$+lepton final states, in both cases with a $\tau$-lepton decaying into a neutrino and hadrons. No significant excess over the Standard Model background expectation is observed. For the mass range of $80 \leq m_{H^{\pm}} \leq 3000$ GeV, upper limits at 95% confidence level are set on the production cross-section of the charged Higgs boson times the branching fraction $\mathrm{\cal{B}}(H^{\pm} \to \tau^{\pm}\nu_{\tau})$ in the range 4.5 pb-0.4 fb. In the mass range 80-160 GeV, assuming the Standard Model cross-section for $t\bar{t}$ production, this corresponds to upper limits between 0.27% and 0.02% on $\mathrm{\cal{B}}(t\to bH^{\pm}) \times \mathrm{\cal{B}}(H^{\pm} \to \tau^{\pm}\nu_{\tau})$.

  1. Searching for Di-Higgs Signatures of Light Charged Scalars

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A roughly 130 GeV charged Higgs explaining the ATLAS t to bH+ excess and B-meson anomalies can be constrained, and perhaps discovered, by recasting SM di-Higgs 4b searches at the LHC.

  2. Searching for charged Higgs bosons via $e^+ e^- \to H^\pm W^\mp S$ at the ILC

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A detector-level Monte Carlo study shows that e+e- -> H± W∓ S in the type-X 2HDM could be discovered at the ILC with 500 GeV and 500 fb^-1.

  3. Charged Higgs Search at Future Neutrino Telescope and Higgs Factory

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Future lepton colliders can discover a charged Higgs below about half their energy, while multi-cubic-kilometer neutrino telescopes add complementary reach for heavier charged Higgs masses.

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The one-loop decay H±→W±γ is re-derived in the general Rξ gauge and used to predict that a 3 TeV muon collider could see a charged Higgs signal, though the conclusion reports only 2 sigma for several benchmarks.

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Under B̄ o Xsγ constraints, NB-LSSM parameters can raise Br(h o bs) to ~10^{-5}, orders of magnitude above the SM, while remaining consistent with Higgs mass and signal strengths.

    hep-ex 2025-04 unverdicted

    Poland recommends FCC-ee as the preferred next CERN collider and gives a linear e+e- collider second priority in its national input to the 2026 European Strategy update.
