Study of s-channel Charged Higgs Production in CMS

Abstract

CMS potential for study of the s-channel $H^{\pm }$-boson production via light quark annihilation is investigated for large values of $\tan \beta$ ($=20÷50$) and relatively light charge Higgs boson ($M_H=200÷400$ GeV). An appropriate parameterisation for $M_{\top}(j, \ETM)$-distributions of the signal and background events is proposed, which provides the determination of the charged Higgs mass and $\tan \beta$ parameter.
