Associated production of the charged Higgs boson and single top quark at the LHC

Understand

The left-right twin Higgs(LRTH) model predicts the existence of the charged Higgs $\phi^{\pm}$.

• In this paper, we study the production of the charged Higgs boson $\phi^{-}$ with single top quark via the process $bg\to t\phi^{-}$ at the $CERN$ Large Hadron Collider(LHC).
• The numerical results show that the production cross section can reach the level of $10 pb$ in the reasonable parameter space of the LRTH model.
• We expect that, as long as it is not too heavy, the possible signatures of the heavy charged Higgs boson $\phi^{-}$ might be detected via the decay mode $\phi^{-}\to \bar{t}b$ at the LHC experiments.
