2 High mass Higgs searches at the Tevatron Higgs production cross sections for p p collisions at s = 1.96 TeV Gluon fusion (ggh) σ pb Associated production (VH) σ pb Vector Boson Fusion (qqh) σ pb Precision ewk data yields 114 <M H < 186 C.L High Mass definition: Searches most sensitive for M H 135 GeV Main Decay mode is WW K.A. Petridis (University of Manchester) Tevatron High Mass Higgs Searches Moriond EW March / 27

3 H WW Final States Use of all feasible final states Hadron collider environment requires at least one leptonic W decay Dilepton (e, µ) - BR 6% Most sensitive final state Lowest Background Rate W Branching Fractions Lepton (e, µ)+τ h - BR 4% Consider hadronic τ decays (τ h ) Provides additional sensitivity Larger Background Rate e, µ+hadrons - BR 30% Larger BR gives 5 more signal compared to Dilepton Large Background Rate K.A.

4 High Masss Higgs Search Strategy Very low S/B makes a cut based analysis impossible (0.1 1.)% for m H = 165 final selection stage Not a counting experiment Employ use of Multivariate techniques (MVA) to extract the signal Maximise power of discriminating variables Input parameters: Kinematic and Event topology variables MVA outputs used as inputs for limit setting (Neural Networks, Decision Trees) Technique validated measuring SM processes Create as many sub-channels as possible Optimise our Signal/Background discriminants for different mixes of signal and background contributions K.A.
