Their discovery is also problematic in standard search channels at the Tevatron Run II and LHC. Such a h^0 can arise in the two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) and in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with explicit CP violating phases. We propose the mechanism p\\bar p \\to H^\\pm h^0 which offers cross-sections of up to 500 fb in the 2HDM, or up to 100 fb in the MSSM. The possibility of a large branching ratio for H^\\pm\\to h^0W^\\pm would give rise to the non-standard signature h^0h^0W^\\pm which might facilitate detection.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2003-08-20T10:16:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.60.Fr", "14.80.Cp" ], "keywords": [ "light higgs boson", "minimal supersymmetric standard model", "higgs doublet model", "explicit cp violating phases", "standard search channels" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
