Search for a Charged Higgs Boson Produced in the Vector-Boson Fusion Mode with Decay H± →w±Z using pp Collisions at s =8 TeV with the ATLAS Experiment

A search for a charged Higgs boson, H±, decaying to a W± boson and a Z boson is presented. The search is based on 20.3 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The H± boson is assumed to be produced via vector-boson fusion...
