Low-energy effects of Charged Higgs with general Yukawa couplings

We study a model with two Higgs doublets where FCNC are allowed at tree-level. In this model, the interactions of charged Higgs with fermions ($H^\pm f \bar{f'}$), include a term that is not proportional to the fermion masses, which we constraint using the following low-energy processes: i) tau decays ($τ\to ν_τ eν_e, ν_τμν_μ, ν_τπ$), ii) leptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons ($π, K \to \ellν_{\ell}$) and iii) semileptonic b-decays. With these constraints it is possible to make predictions; we illustrate this by presenting the rates for the (FCNC) decay $c\to u+γ$, the (second class-current) decay $τ\to ν_τ+ ηπ$, and also the theoretical value of the neutron life-time.

Tensor interactions and $τ$ decays

We study the effects of charged tensor weak currents on the strangeness-changing decays of the $τ$ lepton. First, we use the available information on the $K^+_{e3}$ form factors to obtain BR$(τ^- \rightarrow K^-π^0 ν_τ)\sim {\cal O}(10^{-4})$ when the $Kπ$ system is produced in an antisymmetric tensor configuration. Then, we propose a mechanism for the direct production of the $K_2^*(1430)$ in $τ$ decays. Using the current upper limit on this decay we set a bound on the symmetric tensor interactions.
