The mass of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson was constrained by the Large Electron-Positron (LEP) collider to be above 114.4 GeV. Simple extensions of the scalar sector like adding singlets and/or doublets allow the lightest Higgs to be…
We investigate the hadron collider phenomenology of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with explicit CP violation for Higgs bosons that can be observed in Standard Model search channels: W/ZH(->b-bbar) at the Tevatron, and…
The observability of the Higgs boson via the WW^* decay channel at the Tevatron is discussed taking into account the enhancements due to the possible existence of the extra standard model (SM) families. It seems that the existence of new SM…

A search for a charged Higgs boson (H+) in ttbar decays is presented, where one of the top quarks decays via t->H+b, followed by H+->two jets (csbar). The other top quark decays to Wb, where the W boson then decays into a lepton (e/mu) and…
