Abstract

We present the latest results from searches for singly charged Higgs bosons carried out by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations at the LHC. Both experiments have searched for production of charged Higgs bosons in pp collisions of up to 20(5) fb1 of data at s=8(7) TeV using several final states. In the absence of evidence of signal, limits have been set on cross sections and/or branching ratios, some of which have been interpreted under the assumptions of a Type 2 two-Higgs doublet model to the exclusion of previously unreached regions of the mH+, tan β parameter space.
