High Mass Higgs Boson Searches at the Tevatron

Abstract

We present results from CDF and D0 on direct searches for high mass standard model (SM) Higgs boson (H) in ppbar collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron at (s) = 1.96 TeV. Compared to previous Higgs boson Tevatron combinations, more data and new channels (H -> W+W- -> lnujj, H -> WW -> l+tau + X and trilepton final states) have been added. Most previously used channels have been reanalyzed to gain sensitivity. Analyzing 5.9 fb-1 of data at CDF, and 5.4-6.7 fb-1 at D0, the combination excludes with 95% C.L. a standard model Higgs boson in the mass range of mH = 158-175 GeV/c2.
