Abstract
Many theories beyond the Standard Model, for example the Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM), most variants of Supersymmetry (SUSY) and the left-right symmetric model (LRSM), predict the existence of high mass charged Higgs bosons.
This document presents three recent searches for charged Higgs bosons by the ATLAS experiment using $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV of $pp$ collisions from the LHC.
The analyses presented are a search for Drell-Yan pair production of doubly charged Higgs bosons decaying into same-sign charged electrons or muons using 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of LHC data,
and searches for singly charged Higgs bosons produced in association with a top quark and decaying either into a tau lepton and a neutrino or into a top and a bottom quark, using 13 - 15 fb$^{-1}$ of LHC data.
No evidence for the existence of charged Higgs bosons were found in these studies and upper cross section limits for the production of these particles, as well as mass limits in certain benchmark scenarios are presented.
