Possibility of Observing Charged Higgs in the Single Top Production Channel at LHC

Abstract

Single top quark production through weak interactions is an important source of charged Higgs in the Minimal Super Symmetric Standard Model. In the s-channel single top production ,charged Higgs having largest cross-section may appear as a propagator in the form of heavy resonance state decaying to a pair of top and bottom quark. In this paper the channel under consideration is $pp \rightarrow H^{\pm}\rightarrow tb \rightarrow b\bar{b}W^{\pm} \rightarrow b\bar{b}\tau^{\pm} \nu_{\tau}$, where top quark exclusively decays into a pair of b quark and W boson while W boson subsequently decays to $\tau$ jet and neutrino. So the final state is characterized by the presence of two b jets, hadronic $\tau$ decay and missing transverse energy.It has been demonstrated that the charged Higgs signal observability is possible within the available MSSM parameter space (tan$\beta$, $m_{H^{\pm}})$ respecting all experimental and theoretical constraints due to presence of QCD multijet and electroweak background events at LHC. In order to show the observability potential of charged Higgs, the charged Higgs signal are well observed or excluded in a wide range of phase space particular ($\beta > 35$ at 500 $fb^{-1}$ , $\beta > 25$ at 1000 $fb^{-1}$ , $\beta > 15$ at 3000 $fb^{-1}$ ) at $\sqrt{s}=$14 TeV.
