Prospects for Charged Higgs Discovery at Colliders

The third international workshop "Prospects for Charged Higgs Discovery at Colliders" was organized in Uppsala 27-30 September 2010. This was the third workshop of this kind - the first two ones were held in September 2006 and 2008 in Uppsala. At the time of the workshop, the LHC has been in operation for about six months and a few tens of inverse picobarns were collected by the experiments. This has allowed to make some first investigations based on physics data of QCD backgrounds, calibration methods based on Standard Model signals, analysis tools, reconstruction efficiencies and fake rates as well as trigger schemes. Moreover, new theoretical and phenomenological ideas concerning charged Higgs bosons have been developed since the last workshop in 2008. Further investigations of the charged Higgs discovery reach of the experiments have also been carried out. The plan of this third workshop was to bring together experimentalists and theorists to review the development, since the second workshop, of charged Higgs searches at colliders, in particular with regard to data analysis tools and triggers in the various experiments, theory/phenomenology and generator level simulation and strategies for experimental data analysis. New results in these fields were presented and discussed at the workshop.
