Description
Hints for a Standard Model Higgs boson with mass 115 GeV were observed at the highest centre-of-mass energies reached at LEP2. In addition, various event topologies other than the standard ones were searched for to investigate more exotic theoretical scenarios. An overview of the searches for Higgs bosons performed at LEP2 will be presented, with a large part devoted to the recent exciting results of the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson.
