Other BSM Higgs Searches • DØ: H benchmarked as SM search • Fermiophobic Higgs • At lower mass large BR(H) ~10% • Key issue: understanding QCD background: uses excellent calorimeter • Other BSM Higgs Searches • WHWWW (also SM), charged Higgs, decays to and from top… • Babar: A0, invisible light Higgs decay • Photon+Missing energy in Y(3S) decays • Key issue: e+e- background • For mA<7.8GeV 2.6 signal Models: up to x10-4 BR(Y(3S)A0) < 0.7-31x10-6 ATLAS sem. 29-9-2008
W+ H μ+ W+ W- ν e- W- SM Higgs: HWW • HWWll - signature: Two high pT leptons and MET • Primary backgrounds: WW and top in di-lepton decay channel • Key issue: Maximizing lepton acceptance • Innovations: CDF/DØ : Inclusion of acceptance from VH(CDF) and VBF CDF : Combination of ME and NN approaches, DØ Reoptimized NN Spin correlation: Charged leptons go in the same direction ν ATLAS sem. 29-9-2008
SM Higgs: HWW • Most sensitive Higgs search channel at the Tevatron Results at mH = 165GeV : 95%CL Limits/SM Both experiments Approaching SM sensitivity! ATLAS sem. 29-9-2008
SM Higgs Combined Limits • Limits calculating and combination • Using Bayesian and CLs methodologies. • Incorporate systematic uncertainties using pseudo-experiments (shape and rate included) (correlations taken into account between experiments) • Backgrounds can be constrained in the fit • Low mass combination difficult due to ~70 channels • Expected sensitivity of CDF/DØ combined: <3.0xSM @ 115GeV ATLAS sem. 29-9-2008
