Abstract

We analyze the decays {h0,H0,A0}sˉb\{h^0,H^0,A^0\}\to \bar{s}b within two Higgs Doublet Models with Natural Flavor Conservation (2HDM) type I and II. It is found that the Higgs bosons decay into bottom-strange can lead to a branching ratio in the range 10510310^{-5}\to 10^{-3} for small tanβ0.10.5\tan\beta \approx 0.1\to 0.5 and rather light charged Higgs in the 2HDM type I. When tanβ\ga1\tan\beta \ga 1, one can easily reach a branching ratio of the order 10510^{-5}. In 2HDM type II, without imposing bsγb\to s\gamma constraint, the situation is the same as in 2HDM type I. If bsγb\to s\gamma constraint on charged Higgs mass (MH±350M_{H\pm}\geq 350 GeV) is imposed, we obtain Br(h0sˉb)Br(h^0 \to \bar{s}b) in the range 10510^{-5}--10610^{-6}. A comparison between the rates of h0sˉbh^0\to \bar{s}b and h0γγh^0\to \gamma \gamma is made. It is found that in the fermiophobic scenario, h0γγh^0\to \gamma \gamma is still the dominant decay mode.
