The Search for a Light `Intermediate Mass' Higgs Boson
David J. Summers
Abstract
We review recent progress in techniques for searching for the Standard Model light `Intermediate Mass' Higgs Boson (80 MH 140). We pay particular attention to associated production at the SSC and LHC where we search for the Higgs produced in association with either a W boson or a t quark. This production mode can be detected cleanly when the Higgs decays into two isolated photons, and the associated heavy particle decays semi-leptonically. We discuss the possibility that radiative corrections may significantly enhance the W γγ background, decreasing the significance of the WH signal. Based upon a Plenary talk given at the SSC Symposium, Madison, March 1993.
