Abstract

We study the Higgs sector of supersymmetric models containing two Higgs doublets with a light MSSM-like CP odd Higgs, mA10m_A \lesssim 10 GeV, and tanβ2.5\tan \beta \lesssim 2.5. In this scenario all Higgses resulting from two Higgs doublets: light and heavy CP even Higgses, hh and HH, the CP odd Higgs, AA, and the charged Higgs, H±H^\pm, could have been produced at LEP or the Tevatron, but would have escaped detection because they decay in modes that have not been searched for or the experiments are not sensitive to. Especially HZAH \to ZA and H±W±AH^\pm \to W^{\pm \star} A with Accˉ,τ+τA \to c \bar c, \tau^+ \tau^- present an opportunity to discover some of the Higgses at LEP, the Tevatron and also at B factories. In addition, the 2.8σ2.8 \sigma excess of the branching ratio WτνW \to \tau \nu with respect to the other leptons measured at LEP correlates well with the existence of the charged Higgs with properties typical for this scenario. Dominant τ\tau- and cc-rich decay products of all Higgses require modified strategies for their discovery at the LHC.
