Search for a standard-model-like Higgs boson with a mass in the range 145 to 1000 GeV at the LHC

چکیده
A search for a standard-model-like Higgs boson in the H→WW and H→ZZ decay channels is reported, for Higgs boson masses in the range 145<mH<1000 GeV. The search is based upon proton-proton collision data samples corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 5.1 fb-1 at [Formula: see text] and up to 5.3 fb-1 at [Formula: see text], recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The combined upper limits at 95 % confidence level on products of the cross section and branching fractions exclude a standard-model-like Higgs boson in the range 145<mH<710 GeV, thus extending the mass region excluded by CMS from 127-600 GeV up to 710 GeV.

Search for a Standard Model - like Higgs boson
A search for a heavy Higgs boson using several final states in the H→WW and H→ ZZ decay channels is reported. The search is based upon proton-proton collision data samples corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 5.1 fb−1 at √ s= 7 TeV and up to 19.7 fb−1 at √ s= 8 TeV, recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. A Higgs boson with Standard Model-like couplings and decays in the m...
متن کاملDiscovery Potential of the Standard Model Higgs Boson Through H → WW Decay Mode with the ATLAS Detector at LHC
We report results of a study of the Standard Model Higgs boson discovery potential through the W-pair leptonic decay modes with the ATLAS detector at LHC at 14 TeV center-of-mass energy. We used MC samples with full detector simulation and reconstruction of the ATLAS experiment to estimate the ATLAS detection sensitivity for the reaction of pp→ H →WW → eνμν with no hard jet or two hard jets in ...
متن کاملObservation of an Excess of Events in the Search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
A preliminary combined search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. The pp collisions datasets used correspond to integrated luminosities of 4.6 fb−1 to 4.9 fb−1 at √ s = 7 TeV in 2011 and 5.8 fb−1 to 5.9 fb−1 at √ s = 8 TeV in 2012. Searches for H → γγ, H → ZZ(∗), H → WW (∗), H → bb̄, and H → τ+τ− have been performed on the 2011 data, while only the...
متن کاملTheoretical Status of Higgs Production at Hadron Colliders in the Standard Model
The search for the Higgs boson, the last missing particle in the Standard Model (SM) responsible for the electroweak symmetry breaking, is a primary goal of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and is a central part of Fermilab’s Tevatron program. In the Standard Model, mass generation is triggered by the Higgs mechanism, which predicts the existence of one scalar particle, the Higgs boson [1]...

A combined search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. The data sets used correspond to integrated luminosities from 4:6 fb 1 to 4:9 fb 1 of protonproton collisions collected at ffiffi s p 1⁄4 7 TeV in 2011. The Higgs boson mass ranges of 111.4 GeV to 116.6 GeV, 119.4 GeV to 122.1 GeV, and 129.2 GeV to 541 GeVare excluded at the 95% confidence leve...
متن کاملVector Boson Fusion Production of the Standard Model Higgs at the LHC
The cross section measurements of the Higgs boson production in the vector boson fusion (VBF) process at the LHC followed by a Higgs boson decay into ττ , WW and γγ will significantly extend the possibility of Higgs boson coupling measurements. Prospective analyses with the CMS experiment are discussed for the H → γγ , WW and ττ decay channels for an integrated LHC luminosity of 30 fb−1. For a ...
