et al.

We present a search for new physics in events with two high p_T leptons of the same electric charge, using data with an integrated luminosity of 6.1 fb_-1. The observed data are consistent with standard model predictions. We set 95% C.L. lower limits on the mass of doubly-charged scalars decaying to like-sign dileptons, m_H^±± > 190 - 245 GeV/c², depending on the decay mode and coupling.
