Abstract

We suggest searching for the charged Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) via cgbH+btbˉcg \to b H^+ \to b t \bar b. In the general two Higgs Doublet Model, extra top Yukawa couplings ρtc\rho_{tc} and ρtt\rho_{tt} can drive the disappearance of antimatter from the Universe, while cˉbH+\bar cbH^+ and tˉbH+\bar tbH^+ couple with strength ρtcVtb\rho_{tc}V_{tb} and ρttVtb\rho_{tt}V_{tb}, respectively. For ρtc,ρtt0.5\rho_{tc},\, \rho_{tt} \sim 0.5 and mH+300m_{H^+} \sim 300--500 GeV, evidence could emerge from LHC Run 2 data at hand, and discovery by adding Run 3 data in the near future.
