Higgs Boson

Accurate determination of Higgs properties at the LHC can help to identify the particle's origins in theory space and will provide crucial consistency checks for any bigger picture into which such a state might fit. We can already make progress in this effort using the searches and data provided for the SM-like Higgs, employing straightforward techniques to construct exclusions in very generic...

A combination of Standard Model Higgs boson searches with the ATLAS experiment, in a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 4.9 fb-1 of pp collisions collected at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV at the LHC in 2011 is presented. Upper limits on the cross-section times branching ratio are derived.

Results are presented on the search for the Standard Model Higgs decaying into two photons or into two Z bosons, with each Z boson decaying into a pair of charged leptons. The full data sample of 4.7/fb of pp collisions collected in 2011 with the CMS experiment at the LHC have been analysed. The search results are translated into 95% exclusion limits for the Higgs boson, as function of the Higgs mass.

The latest results from the CDF Collaboration on searches for the Standard Model Higgs Boson using up to 10 fb-1 of proton-anti-proton collisions at 1.96 TeV center-of-mass energy. Recent improvements in b-quark identification, online event selection, and background rejection have significantly increased the sensitivity across a wide range of Higgs masses (100 - 200 GeV/c^2). These improved...

The experimental results of the Standard Model Higgs searches with the ATLAS experiment, in a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 4.9 fb-1 of pp collisions collected at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV at the LHC, are presented. Several channels contributing to the sensitivity in the most challenging low-mass region are discussed. The exclusion limits at the 95% confidence level are...

Results are presented on the search for the non-Standard Model Higgs production and decays, including neutral Higgs to a pair of tau leptons, charged Higgs studies and the production of double charged Higgs bosons decaying into a pair of like single charged leptons. Also a search for a low mass $a_0$ decaying into a muon pair is reported. The full data sample of 4.7 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions...
