DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis work presents a search for the pair production of doubly-charged Higgs Bosons in the process p$ar{p}$ → H++H-- → ?+?+?-?- using inclusive dimuon events. These data correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 113 pb 1 and were recorded by the D0 experiment between August 2002 and June 2003. In the absence of a signal, 95% confidence level mass limits of M(H$±±top{L}$) > 118.6 GeV/c2 and M(HR±±) > 98.1 GeV/c2 are set for left-handed and right-handed doubly-charged Higgs boson, assuming 100% branching into muons and hypercharge.
