Abstract

This Letter describes a direct search for charged Higgs boson production in p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.8 TeV recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Two-Higgs-double extensions to the standard model predict the existence of charged Higgs bosons (H+/-). In such models, the branching fraction for top quarks B(t --> H(+)b --> tau(+) nu b) can be large. This search uses the hadronic decays of the tan lepton in this channel to significantly extend previous limits on H+/- production.
