PARTICLE PHYSICS SEMINAR
at 17:00 – Stückelberg Auditorium
Hunting for the Higgs with D0 at the Tevatron
Prof. Gustaaf Brooijmans / Columbia University
The search for the Higgs boson is one of the most important endeavors in current experimental particle physics. At the eve of the LHC start, the Tevatron is delivering record luminosity allowing both CDF and D0 to explore a new region of possible Higgs masses. In this seminar, the techniques used to search for the Higgs boson at the Tevatron will be explained, limiting factors will be examined, and the sensitivity in the various channels will be reviewed. The newly excluded values of the standard model Higgs mass will be presented.
