Description
The Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) predicts a pair of charged Higgs bosons (H±) along with three other neutral Higgs bosons. At the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), dif- ferent mechanisms can lead to the production of the charged Higgs bosons, depending on the mass of the Charged Higgs bosons. Light charged Higgs bosons (90-160 GeV) can be studied in the events containing top-antitop (t ̄) pairs, while the heavy charged Higgs t bosons can get directly produced. Extensive searches for such charged Higgs bosons considering various decay modes have been performed with the recent ATLAS data and the results will be presented in this talk.
