In certain new physics scenarios, a singly charged Higgs boson can couple to both fermions and $W^pm Z$ at tree level. We develop new strategies beyond current experimental searches using $ppto jjH^pm$, $H^pm to tb $ at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). With the effective $H^pm W^mp Z$ and $H^pm tb$ couplings we perform a model-independent analysis at the collision energy $sqrt{s}=13$~TeV with the integrated luminosity of $3~text{ab}^{-1}$. We derive the discovery prospects and exclusion limits for the charged Higgs boson in the mass range from 200~GeV to 1~TeV. With $|F_{WZ}|,|A_t|sim 0.5-1.0$ and $300~text{GeV}lesssim m_{H^pm}lesssim 400~text{GeV}$, we point out that a discovery significance of $5sigma$ can be achieved. The constraints and projected sensitivities are also discussed in a realistic model, i.e., the modified Georgi-Machacek model without custodial symmetry. Our proposed search would provide direct evidence for a charged Higgs boson $H^pm$ that couples to $W^pm Z$ and $tb$, which can have better sensitivity to the couplings of $H^pm W^mp Z$ and $H^pm tb$ than current searches.

An $H^pm W^mp Z$ interaction at the tree level is common feature of new physics models that feature scalar triplets. In this study, we aim to probe the strength of the aforementioned interaction in a model-agnostic fashion at the futuristic 27 TeV proton-proton collider. We assume that the $H^pm$ couples dominantly to ($W^pm,Z$) and ($t,b$). We specifically study the processes that involve the $H^pm W^mp Z$ vertex at the production level, that is, $p p to H^pm j j$ and $p p to Z H^pm$. Moreover, we look into both $H^pm to W^pm Z,~t b$ decays for either production process. Our investigations reveal that the $H^pm j j$ production process has a greater reach compared to $Z H^pm$. Moreover, the discovery potential of a charged Higgs improves markedly with respect to the earlier studies corresponding to lower centre-of-mass energies. Finally, we recast our results in the context of the popular Georgi-Machacek model.
We investigate the viability of observing charged Higgs bosons (H^pm) produced in association with W bosons at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, using the leptonic decay H^+ -> tau^+ nu_tau and hadronic W decay, within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Performing a parton level study we show how the irreducible Standard Model background from W + 2 jets can be controlled by applying appropriate cuts. In the standard m_h^max scenario we find a viable signal for large tan beta and intermediate H^pm masses (~ m_t).
In this paper we compute the electroweak corrections to the charged Higgs boson decay into a $W$ boson and a neutral Higgs boson in the CP-conserving NMSSM. We calculate the process in a general $R_xi$ gauge and investigate the dependence of the loop-corrected decay width on the gauge parameter $xi$. The gauge dependence arises from the mixing of different loop orders. Phenomenology requires the inclusion of mass and mixing corrections to the external Higgs bosons in order to match the experimentally measured mass values. As a result, we move away from a strict one-loop calculation and consequently mix orders in perturbation theory. Moreover, determination of the loop-corrected masses in an iterative procedure also results in the mixing of different loop orders. Gauge dependence then arises from the mismatch with tree-level Goldstone boson couplings that are applied in the loop calculation, and from the gauge dependence of the loop-corrected masses themselves. We find that the gauge dependence is significant.
We study impacts of dimension-five lepton-number violating operators associated with two same-sign weak bosons, $ell^pm ell^{prime pm} W^mp W^mp$, on current and future experiments for neutrino oscillation, lepton-number violating rare processes and high-energy collider experiments. These operators can contain important information on the origin of tiny neutrino masses, which is independent of that from the so-called Weinberg operator. We examine constraints on the coefficients of the operators by the neutrino oscillation data. Upper bounds on the coefficients are also investigated by using the data for processes of lepton number violation such as neutrinoless double beta decays and $mu^-$-$e^+$ conversion. These operators can also be directly tested by searching for lepton-number violating dilepton production via the same-sign W boson fusion process at high-energy hadron colliders like the Large Hadron Collider. We find that these operators can be considerably probed by these current and future experiments.
We study the process q q, g g -> A -> Z* h in a 2-Higgs Doublet Model Type-II where the mass of the CP-odd Higgs state $A$ is lower than the rest mass of the Z and h particles (the latter being the Standard Model-like Higgs state), i.e., m_A < m_Z+m_h = 215 GeV. This is a mass range which is not being currently tested by ATLAS and CMS in this channel, yet we show that there can be sensitivity to it already during Runs 2 and 3, assuming leptonic decays of the gauge boson and bottom-antibottom quark ones for the Higgs boson.
