Title: A search for the top quark decaying to charged Higgs in p{bar p} collisions at {radical}s = 1.8 TeV

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10119466

We present results of a search for the top quark decaying to a charged. Higgs boson (H) in p{bar p} collisions at {radical}s = 1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron. Using 4.1 pb{sup {minus}1} of data collected during the 1988--1989 CDF run, we have searched for evidence of t{bar t} production assuming that t{r_arrow} Hb and H{r_arrow} {tau}{nu}{sub {tau}}. We find no evidence for this decay and are able to exclude regions in the (m{sub t}, m{sub H}) plane for different Br(H{r_arrow} {tau}{nu}{sub {tau}}). We also interpret these results for the two Higgs doublet(THD) model.
