Abstract

We investigate the potential of future TeV linear e+e- colliders to observe singly-charged Higgs bosons (H) via the coupling H W Z, which would signal the existence of exotic Higgs representations. In the context of a Higgs-triplet model compatible with the electroweak oblique parameters, we estimate the cross section for pro- ducing charged Higgs-triplet bosons that couple predominantly to W and Z bosons in 0.5--2 TeV-e+e- colliders. The principal backgrounds are evaluated and the viability of the signal is discussed and illustrated.
