Ja n 20 03 Is There A Higgs Boson With Mass Below 100 GeV / c 2 In The LEP Data ?
نویسنده
چکیده
There could be a Higgs boson with a mass less than 100 GeV/c 2 in the LEP data if its decay width and modes are not dominated by b quarks. At present, the quantum interference between signal and background processes has not been considered in flavour independent searches but when it is, the long-sought particle may appear.

Hints of Higgs Boson Production at Lep
An excess of signal-like events above the expected background, corresponding to approximately three standard deviations, was observed in the search for the standard model Higgs boson at LEP in 2000. This excess is consistent with the existence of a 115 GeV/c Higgs particle. The LEP run in 2000 at centre-of-mass energies up to 209 GeV allowed the standard model Higgs boson search sensitivity at ...

The latest preliminary combined results of the Higgs boson searches from the LEP experiments ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL are presented. A general scan of the MSSM parameters is performed and leads to stringent lower mass limits and for the first time excludes low tanβ values.

متن کاملSearch for the Standard Model Higgs Boson at LEP
Preliminary results from the four LEP experiments using data collected at 189 GeV have shown no evidence for the Standard Model Higgs boson. The preliminary 95% confidence level lower limits on the SM Higgs boson mass from ALEPH, DELPHI, OPAL, and L3 are 90.4 GeV/c, 94.1 GeV/c, 95.5 GeV/c, and 95.2 GeV/c, respectively. When LEP finishes in the year 2000, each experiment expects to collect 200 p...
متن کاملHiggs Physics: from LEP to a Future Linear Collider
New preliminary combined results from the LEP experiments on searches for the Higgs boson beyond the Standard Model are presented. The new determination of the top quark mass at the Tevatron in 2004 influences the interpretations of the LEP results in both, the Standard Model, and the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. Higgs boson physics will also be a major research area ...
