Preliminary results of the Standard Model Higgs Boson search at LEP in 2000
Miroslav Kopal
TL;DR
This paper reports preliminary results from LEP experiments indicating a 2.6 sigma excess around 114 GeV in the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson using data from 2000.
Contribution
It presents the first combined analysis of LEP data at energies up to 209 GeV, suggesting a potential Higgs signal near 114 GeV.
Findings
2.6 sigma excess observed at 114 GeV
Data analyzed from four LEP experiments
Preliminary results indicating possible Higgs signal
Abstract
A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson is performed using the data collected by the four LEP experiments at center-of-mass energies between 202 GeV and 209 GeV. An average luminosity of 140 per experiment has been analyzed. A 2.6 excess is observed in the LEP-wide combination for a Higgs boson mass hypothesis of around 114 GeV. All results are preliminary.
