Results are presented on the search for the standard model Higgs boson decaying into two tau leptons, using both leptonic and hadronic decays of the tau. The sample are split into various categories to enhance the search sensitivity. The full data sample of 4.7 fb-1 of pp collisions collected in 2011 with the CMS experiment at a CM energy of 7 TeV have been analyzed, as well as a significant...

A Higgs boson search in the H-> tau^+ tau^- decay mode has been performed using proton-proton collision data recently collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search was performed in the mass range of 100-150 GeV. Upper limits on the cross-section times branching ratio are derived.

Although the sensitivity to a low-mass Standard Model Higgs boson at the Fermilab Tevatron is highest for the primary search channels ($H\to b\bar{b}$ decay in association with a vector boson and H-WW), other channels contribute significantly to the combined Higgs search sensitivity. We report the results of searches for the Higgs boson produced in association with a top quark pair with the...

A linear e+e- collider provides excellent possibilities for precision measurements of the properties of the Higgs boson. At energies close to the Z-Higgs threshold, the Higgs boson can be studied in recoil against a Z boson, to obtain not only a precision mass measurement but also direct measurements of the branching ratios for all important decay modes, including possible decay to invisible...
