A possible discovery of a relatively light charged Higgs boson H^+ in near future experiments, with a mass M_{H+} ~< 110 GeV, together with the present LEP2 direct limits on the chargino and neutral Higgs sectors, would disfavour the…
The radiative B ->\tau^+ \tau^- \gamma decay is investigated in the framework of the two Higgs doublet model . The dependence of the differential branching ratio on the photon energy and the branching ratio on the two Higgs doublet model…
We study effects of charged Higgs boson exchange in the $B$ semileptonic decays $\bar B \rightarrow D^{(*)}\tau\bar\nu_\tau$. Both branching ratio and $\tau$ polarization are examined. We use the recent experimental data on semileptonic $B$…
The decay rate of a (neutral) Higgs boson ($H$) going into a longitudinal $W$-boson pair is calculated by including one loop radiative corrections in a two-Higgs doublet model. It is assumed that the Higgs boson $H$ is much heavier than the…
The charged Higgs bosons can be produced as a resonance in s-channel single top events. The light charged Higgs in such events preferably decays to a pair of $\tau \nu$ thus making it difficult to distinguish from the large single W events…
We study the signals for a "fermiophobic" charged Higgs boson present in an extension of the standard model with an additional Higgs doublet and right handed neutrinos, responsible for generating Dirac-type neutrino masses. We study the…
A Higgs boson in the intermediate mass range is considered. An effective Lagrangian approach is used in order to evaluate the top-induced QCD corrections of order $\alpha_s^3$ to the decay into light quarks and $O(\alpha_s^4)$ corrections…
A sequential fourth generation is known to be excluded because the non-decoupling contribution to $\kappa_g$, the Higgs coupling modifier with a gluon pair, is unacceptably large. Recently a new way to save the model was suggested in the…
In the decoupling limit, $M^2_{A^0} \gg M^2_Z$, the heavy CP-even, CP-odd and charged Higgs boson masses are nearly degenerate, $\sin(\beta-\alpha)$ approaches 1, and the lightest CP-even Higgs boson almost displays the same properties as…
The observability of charged Higgs $ H^{\pm} $ has been investigated at future lepton collider by assuming type-I 2HDM, at a centre of mass energy $ \sqrt{s}=1.5$ TeV. The signal process chain is $ e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow Z^{*}/…
We discuss the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ QCD radiative corrections to Higgs boson production in the limit in which the top quark is much heavier than the Higgs boson. The subleading corrections, of ${\cal O} (\alpha_s M_H^2/M_{\rm top}^2)$, are…
We calculate the Yukawa corrections of order $O(\alpha_{ew}m_{t(b)}^{2}/m_{W}^{2})$ to charged Higgs boson production in association with a top quark at the Tevatron and the LHC. The corrections are not very sensitive to the mass of the…
We study charged Higgs production in the process $\gamma\gamma\to A^0\to W^- H^+$. The processes $\gamma\gamma\to A^0$ are loop mediated in a 2HDM. This is due to the fact that photons only couple directly to charged particles and the Higgs…
We study the "lepton-specific" two Higgs doublet model, in which one doublet Phi_l gives mass to charged leptons and the other Phi_q gives mass to both up- and down-type quarks. We examine the existing experimental constraints on the…
Quark mass effects in ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^2)$ QCD corrections to the decay rates of intermediate Higgs bosons are studied. The total hadronic rate and the partial decay rate into bottom quarks are analyzed for the Standard (scalar) Higgs…
The calculation of the one-loop induced decay rate b -> s \gamma is improved by including radiative corrections to the charged Higgs mass and to the charged-Higgs-fermion-fermion vertex. It is shown how the radiative corrections modify the…
We present an analysis of supersymmetric left-right symmetric models with Higgs fields lying in the adjoint representation of $SU(2)_R$. These models feature a doubly-charged Higgs boson which gets its mass only at the loop level. We…
We comprehensively study the charged-Higgs contributions to the leptonic $B^-_q \to \ell \bar \nu$ ($q=u,c$) and semileptonic $\bar B \to X_q \ell \bar\nu$ ($X_u=\pi, \rho; X_c=D,D^*$) decays in the type-III two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM).…
Interpretations of Higgs searches critically involve production cross sections and decay probabilities for different analysis channels. Mixing effects can reduce production rates, while invisible decays can reduce decay probabilities. Both…
At the LHC a precise measurement of the Higgs boson mass (if discovered), at the level of 0.1-1%, will be possible through the channel g g --> H --> 4l for a wide range of Higgs mass values. To match such an accuracy, the systematic effects…
