Abstract
We consider the production of charged Higgs scalar bosons at and hadron colliders as a probe of the vertex which can be nonzero at the tree level in models. Substantial cross sections at both kinds of colliders are possible but backgrounds are very substantial. These backgrounds can, in principle, be dealt with. annihilation with a light may offer the best hope of probing this new interaction.
