The ALEPH Search for the Standard Model Higgs Boson
J. A. Kennedy
TL;DR
The ALEPH experiment conducted a search for the Standard Model Higgs boson using 2000 data, finding a 3 sigma excess near 114 GeV/c2, suggesting potential evidence for the Higgs.
Contribution
First search with ALEPH data indicating a possible Higgs signal around 114 GeV/c2, providing experimental evidence consistent with the Standard Model prediction.
Findings
3 sigma excess above background
Potential Higgs signal near 114 GeV/c2
Supports previous hints of Higgs at similar mass
Abstract
A search has been performed for the Standard Model Higgs boson in the data collected with the ALEPH detector in 2000. An excess of 3 sigma above the background expectation is found. The observed excess is consistent with the production of the Higgs boson with a mass close to 114 GeV/c2.
