Search for the Standard Model Higgs boson at LEP in the year 2000
The DELPHI Collaboration, P. Abreu, et al
TL;DR
The DELPHI experiment at LEP searched for the Standard Model Higgs boson in 2000 data, setting a lower mass limit of 114.3 GeV/c^2 with no evidence of detection.
Contribution
This paper reports the most recent search results for the Standard Model Higgs boson at LEP in 2000, establishing a new lower mass limit.
Findings
No Higgs signal observed within accessible mass range.
Set a 95% confidence level lower mass limit of 114.3 GeV/c^2.
Expected median limit was 113.5 GeV/c^2.
Abstract
Searches for the Standard Model Higgs boson have been performed in the data collected by the DELPHI experiment at LEP in the year 2000 at centre-of-mass energies between 200 and 209 GeV corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 224 pb^{-1}. No evidence for a Higgs signal is observed in the kinematically accessible mass range, and a 95% CL lower mass limit of 114.3 GeV/c^2 is set, to be compared with an expected median limit of 113.5 GeV/c^2 for these data.
