Abstract

We propose new production mechanisms for light fermiophobic Higgs bosons (hf) with suppressed couplings to vector bosons (V) at the Fermilab Tevatron. These mechanisms (e.g. qq^\ensuremath'\ensuremath→H^\ifmmode±\else\textpm\fihf) are complementary to the conventional process qq^\ensuremath'\ensuremath→Vhf, which suffers from a strong suppression of 1/tan2\ensuremathβ in realistic models with a hf. The new mechanisms extend the coverage at the Tevatron run II to the larger tan\ensuremathβ region, and offer the possibility of observing new event topologies with up to four photons.
