Combination of Higgs Searches
/CMS Collaboration
The overall combination is presented of eight standard model (SM) Higgs boson searches performed by the CMS Collaboration using the following Higgs boson decay signatures: $H \to \gamma\gamma$, $H \to \tau\tau$, $H \to bb$, $H \to WW \to 2\ell 2\nu$,
$H \to ZZ \to 4\ell$,
$H \to ZZ \to 2\ell 2 \tau$,
$H \to ZZ \to 2\ell 2\nu$, and $H \to ZZ \to 2\ell 2q$. Depending on the analysis, the amount of data used corresponds to 1.1-1.7~fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity.
The SM Higgs boson is excluded at 95\% C.L. [...]

Search for a Higgs boson decaying into two photons in the CMS detector
/CMS Collaboration
This note describes the search for a Higgs boson decaying into
diphotons in pp collisions at the LHC at a center-of-mass
energy of 7~TeV.
Data-driven methods are used to evaluate the reconstruction and selection
performance for the signal, and the background is evaluated from a fit
to the data. The analysis is performed on a dataset corresponding to 1.66~fb$^{-1}$ of data
recorded in 2011 by the CMS experiment.
Limits are set on the cross section of a Standard Model Higgs boson
decaying to 2 photons, and on the cross section of a fermiophobic Higgs boson
decaying to 2 photons.
The expected exclusion limit at 95\% CL is between 2.7 and 4.7 times
the Standard Model cross section, and the observed limit fluctuates between
about 1.3 and 8 times the Standard Model cross section.
For the fermiophobic model, the expected exclusion limit at 95\% CL
covers the mass range between 110-116.5~GeV$/c^{2}$, while the
data excludes only the mass range 110-112~GeV$/c^{2}$..

Search for the Standard Model Higgs Boson Decaying to Bottom Quarks and Produced in Association with a W or a Z Boson
/CMS Collaboration
A search for the standard model Higgs boson is performed in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.1$~fb$^{-1}$, recorded by the CMS detector in proton-proton collisions at the LHC with a 7~TeV center-of-mass energy. The following modes are studied: $W(\mu\nu)H,~ W(e\nu)H,~ Z(\mu\mu)H,~ Z(ee)H$ and $Z(\nu\nu)H$, with the Higgs decaying to $b\bar{b}$ pairs. [...]

This note describes the search for a Higgs boson decaying into
diphotons in the CMS detector.
Data-driven methods are used to evaluate the reconstruction and selection
performance for the signal, and the background is evaluated from a fit
to the data.
The analysis is performed on a dataset corresponding to $1.09~\fbinv$ of data
collected in 2011.
Limits are set on the cross section of a Standard Model Higgs boson
decaying to 2 photons, and on the cross section of a fermiophobic Higgs boson
decaying to 2 photons.
The expected exclusion limit at 95\% CL is less than 4 times the Standard Model
cross section between 110 and 135~\GeVcc, and the actual excluded
ratio to the SM cross section varies between 1.9 and 7.4.
For a fermiophobic model the expected exclusion limit at 95\% CL is less than
the cross section predicted by the model between 110 and 114~\GeVcc..

Search for Neutral Higgs Boson Production and Decay to Tau Pairs
/CMS Collaboration
The results of a search for neutral MSSM Higgs boson production in
$pp$ collisions at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 7~TeV are
presented, based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated
luminosity of 36 pb$^{-1}$. We search for decays of the Higgs bosons
to tau lepton pairs, using the final states with one identified $e$ or
$\mu$ from leptonic tau decay plus a reconstructed hadronic decay
of a tau lepton, and also the final state with two leptonic tau
decays, and then fully reconstruct the original tau lepton pair
kinematics using a novel likelihood algorithm. [...]
