Abstract

We present a search for charged Higgs bosons in decays of top quarks, in the mass range 80<mH±<155  GeV, assuming the subsequent decay H+→τ+ντ (and its charge conjugate). Using 0.9  fb-1 of lepton+jets data collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron pp̅ collider, operating at a center of mass energy √s=1.96  TeV, we find no evidence for a H± signal. Hence we exclude branching ratios B(t→H+b)>0.24 for mH±=80  GeV and B(t→H+b)>0.19 for mH±=155  GeV at the 95% C.L.
