Searches for a low-mass Higgs boson at the Tevatron
Description
This proceeding presents an overview of recent experimental searches for the standard model Higgs boson. These searches are based on data collected by the Cdf and the DZero experiments operating at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider with √8 = 1.96 TeV. We focus on searches that are sensitive to a low-mass Higgs boson production with mH <∼ 140 GeV/c2. Using up to 4.2 fb-1 of data, both Cdf and DZero find no evidence for Higgs boson production, and set 95% confidence level upper limits on Higgs boson production cross-section times branching ratio.
