The analysis is based on the data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 $\\text{fb}^{-1}$.Charged Higgs bosons in the 200 GeV to 1 TeV mass range are searched for. The results are interpreted within the generalized two-Higgs-doublet model (g2HDM), which predicts an $\\text{H}^{\\pm}$, a neutral scalar, and a pseudoscalar, featuring additional Yukawa couplings to the top quark and u-type quarks, denoted by $\\rho_{tt}$, $\\rho_{tc}$, and $\\rho_{tu}$. Motivated by previous LHC results, the extra Yukawa coupling $\\rho_{tu}$ is set to zero in this analysis. The search focuses on the real components of the additional top quark Yukawa couplings, $\\rho_{tt}$ and $\\rho_{tc}$, which are probed up to values of unity.An excess is observed with respect to the standard model expectation with a local significance of 2.4 standard deviations for a signal with $m_{\\text{H}^{\\pm}} = 600$ GeV.Exclusion limits are derived on the product of the cross section  $\\sigma(\\text{pp}\\to\\text{qH}^\\pm)$ and branching fraction $\\mathcal{B}(\\text{H}^\\pm\\to\\text{tb}, {\\text{t}\\to \\text{b} \\text{l}\\nu})$, where $\\text{l}=e, \\mu$, for $\\rho_{tc} \\gtrsim 0.15-0.5$ depending on the $m_{\\text{H}^{\\pm}}$ and $\\rho_{tt}$ assumption. The results represent the first search for charged Higgs bosons within the g2HDM framework and complement the existing results on additional neutral Higgs bosons.","hasPart":[{"@id":"https://doi.org/10.17182/hepdata.161621.v2/t1","@type":"Dataset","description":"The postfit pDNN distributions in the SR e 2b2j assuming $m_{H^\\pm} = 600$ GeV.
