Discovery of Charged Higgs through {\gamma}{\gamma} final states
Abstract
Extending the Higgs sector by an additional doublet Higgs boson implies the existence of a charged Higgs boson . The LHC experiments search for such particle focusing on it decays into leptonic and quark decay final states, namely , and . However, if the Higgs sector if further extended, e.g. by a gauge singlet as in the NMSSM, the charged Higgs boson can also decay into a light scalar or pseudoscalar Higgs boson which itself decays further into a two photon final state. We present here scenarios where is produced in top-quark decays with a sizable cross-section such the corresponding signal is well above the Standard Model background at the 13 TeV run of Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with an integrated luminosity 100 fb.
