Description

We present a search for the Standard Model Higgs boson produced via the WH to WWW(*) process at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We require two like-sign leptons (electrons or muons) with about 5 fb-1 of data. This channel provides significant sensitivity in the intermediate Higgs boson mass range. As well as inclusion of the full data set, about 5 fb-1, recent improvements to the sensitivity will be discussed.
