Description

We present a search for a light Standard Model Higgs Boson produced in association with a Z boson decaying invisibly into a pair of neutrinos. The final state is characterised by a presence of two b-tagged jets from the Higgs Boson decay and a large imbalance in the transverse energy of the event. The search has been performed using data collected by the D0 experiment at Fermilab. This channel is challenging as the decay signatures are common in QCD and instrumental backgrounds.
