Higgs review at LEP

Creators

Description

The four LEP collaborations have collected a total of 2461 pb''-1 of e''+e''- collision data at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 209 GeV. The final results for the Standard Model Higgs search are presented. An observed lower limit of 114.4 GeV/c''2 (115.3 GeV/c''2 expected) is obtained from combined results and examined in a likelihood test for their consistency with two hypotheses: the background hypothesis and the signal plus background hypothesis. the LEP data are also used to set preliminary MSSM Higgs limits and final Fermiophobic Higgs LEP results.
