Abstract

A search for charged Higgs bosons produced
in vector boson fusion processes and decaying into vector
bosons, using proton–proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV at
the LHC, is reported. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb−1 collected with the CMS detector. Events are selected by requiring two or three electrons
or muons, moderate missing transverse momentum, and two
jets with a large rapidity separation and a large dijet mass.
No excess of events with respect to the standard model background predictions is observed. Model independent upper
limits at 95% confidence level are reported on the product
of the cross section and branching fraction for vector boson
fusion production of charged Higgs bosons as a function of
mass, from 200 to 3000 GeV. The results are interpreted in
the context of the Georgi–Machacek model.
