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 and the decays W-+/- -> q (q{\textquoteright}) over bar and Z -> e(+)e(-)/mu(+)mu(-) are considered. The search is performed in a range of charged Higgs boson masses from 200 to 1000 GeV. No evidence for the production of an H+ boson is observed. Upper limits of 31-1020 fb at 95{\%} C.L. are placed on the cross section for vector-boson fusion production of an H-+/- boson times its branching fraction to W(+/-)Z. The limits are compared with predictions from the Georgi-Machacek Higgs triplet model.", optnote="WOS:000355833300001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=2266), last updated on Thu, 02 Jul 2015 18:18:42 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.231801", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1503.04233", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.231801", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1503.04233", language="English" }
