Abstract

The Higgs sector of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) consists\nof five physical Higgs bosons, which offer a variety of channels for their\nexperimental search. The present study aims to further our understanding of the\nTevatron reach for MSSM Higgs bosons, addressing relevant theoretical issues\nrelated to the SUSY parameter space, with special emphasis on the radiative\ncorrections to the down--quark and lepton couplings to the Higgs bosons for\nlarge $\\tan\\beta$. We performed a computation of the signal and backgrounds for\nthe production processes $W\\phi$ and $b \\bar{b} \\phi$ at the upgraded Tevatron,\nwith $\\phi$ being the neutral MSSM Higgs bosons. Detailed experimental\ninformation and further higher order calculations are demanded to\nconfirm/refine these predictions.\n
