Title: Search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in the H to tau+ tau- decay mode in sqrt(s) = 7 TeV pp collisions with ATLAS

Abstract

A search for the neutral Higgs bosons predicted by the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is reported. The analysis is performed on data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The samples used for this search were collected in 2012 and correspond to integrated luminosities in the range 19.5-20.3 fb^-1. The MSSM Higgs bosons are searched for in the τ τ final state. No significant excess over the expected background is observed, and exclusion limits are derived for the production cross section times branching fraction of a scalar particle as a function of its mass. The results are also interpreted in the MSSM parameter space for various benchmark scenarios.

Journal Article Aad, G.; Abajyan, T.; Abbott, B.; ... - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

A search for neutral Higgs bosons of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is reported. The analysis is based on a sample of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The data were recorded in 2011 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 fb^-1 to 4.8 fb^-1. Higgs boson decays into oppositely-charged muon or τ lepton pairs are considered for final states requiring either the presence or absence of b-jets. No statistically significant excess over the expected background is observed and exclusion limits at the 95% confidencemore »« less

Search for charged Higgs bosons decaying via H ± → τ ± ν in fully hadronic final states using pp collision data at s $$$$ \sqrt{s} $$$$ = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Journal Article Aad, G.; Abbott, B.; Abdallah, J.; ... - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

The results of a search for charged Higgs bosons decaying to a τ lepton and a neutrino, H ± → τ ± ν, are presented. The analysis is based on 19.5 fb^-1 of proton-proton collision data at s$$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 8 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Charged Higgs bosons are searched for in events consistent with top-quark pair production or in associated production with a top quark, depending on the considered H ± mass. The final state is characterised by the presence of a hadronic τ decay, missing transverse momentum, b-tagged jets,more »« less

Journal Article Aad, G.; Abbott, B.; Abdallah, J.; ... - European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson produced in association with a top-quark pair, ttH, is presented. The analysis uses 20.3 fb -1 of pp collision data at √s = 8 TeV, collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider during 2012. The search is designed for the H → bb decay mode and uses events containing one or two electrons or muons. In order to improve the sensitivity of the search, events are categorised according to their jet and b-tagged jet multiplicities. A neural network is used to discriminate between signal and background events, the lattermore »« less
