Abstract

We compute the fermionic radiative contributions to the decay H+W+()A0H^+ \to W^{+(*)} A^0 in the framework of models with two Higgs doublets (2HDM), for the case of an on-shell and off-shell W. We show that, in the majority of the cases, current measurements of the ρ\rho parameter suggest MH±MAM_{H^{\pm}}\ge M_A and such decays could invalidate current charged Higgs searches or aid detection in the region MH±MWM_{H^{\pm}}\approx M_W. We find that the radiative corrections may approach 50% for small values of tanβ\tan\beta.
