The D0 and CDF experiments at the Tevatron have sought the Higgs boson in data collected till 1996, and have set limits to its existence. After a major upgrade of both detectors and substantial improvements of the acceleration complex, the two experiments have restarted collecting physics quality data in early 2002. It is expected that a Standard Model Higgs boson with mass lower than 180 GeV will be either discovered or ruled out with five years of running.

The recent observation of the Higgs boson has been hailed as the scientific discovery of the century and led to the 2013 Nobel Prize in physics. This book describes the detailed science behind the decades-long search for this elusive particle at the Large Electron Positron Collider at CERN and at the Tevatron at Fermilab and its subsequent discovery and characterization at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Written by physicists who played leading roles in this epic search and discovery, this book is an authoritative and pedagogical exposition of the portrait of the Higgs boson that has emerged from a large number of experimental measurements. As the first of its kind, this book should be of interest to graduate students and researchers in particle physics.

This analysis describes a search for a standard model Higgs boson produced in association with a Z boson through the decay mode ZH → e+e -bb in pp collisions at s = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatrot Collider. The data sample used in this analysis corresponds to 452 pb-1 of integrated luminosity accumulated with the DO detector. Agreement between data and standard model predictions is observed. A 95% confidence level upper exclusion limit for the sigma(pp → ZH x BR(H → bb) channel is set between 3.2--8.2 pb for Higgs masses of 105 to 145 GeV.

Searching for and potential discovery of Higgs boson(s) both within and beyond the standard model is perhaps the most visible physics goal of the current Fermilab Tevatron program. In this proceeding, recent results from both the CDF and D0 experiments based on analyses of datasets with integrated luminosities between 1.7 and 3.0 fb−1 are summarized. The combined Tevatron cross section upper limits on the production of a standard model Higgs boson are fast approaching the expected standard model values for a wide mass range. Particularly, the Tevatron has now excluded a standard model Higgs boson with a mass of 170 GeV at 95% C.L.

Searches for the Standard Model Higgs boson at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 1.96 TeV, using up to 5.4 fb−1 of data collected with the CDF and D0 detectors at the Fermilab Tevatron collider in the mass range around 160 GeV/c2 are presented. As no significant excess is observed, limits on standard-model Higgs boson production are set.

We combine searches by the CDF and D0 collaborations for a Higgs boson decaying to W+W−. The data correspond to an integrated total luminosity of 4.8 (CDF) and 5.4 (D0) fb−1 of p{bar p} collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. No excess is observed above background expectation, and resulting limits on Higgs boson production exclude a standard-model Higgs boson in the mass range 162-166 GeV at the 95% C.L.

This paper presents an overview of recent experimental direct searches for Higgs-boson and beyond-the-standard-model (BSM) physics shown in the plenary session at the SUSY07 conference. The results reported correspond to an integrated luminosity of up to 2 fb−1 of Run II data from p{bar p} collisions collected by the CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. Searches covered include: the standard model (SM) Higgs boson (including sensitivity projections), the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model (MSSM), charged Higgs bosons and extended Higgs models, supersymmetric decays that conserve R-parity, gauge-mediated supersymmetric breaking models, long-lived particles, leptoquarks, extra gauge bosons, extra dimensions, and finally signature-based searches. Given the excellent performance of the collider and the continued productivity of the experiments, the Tevatron physics potential looks very promising for discovery in the coming larger data sets. In particular, the Higgs boson could be observed if its mass is light or near 160 GeV.

The search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in p{bar p} collisions at 1.96 TeV performed by CDF and D0 collaborations at the Tevatron collider is reported in this paper. The Higgs candidate events are reconstructed using different final states in order to optimize the sensitivity in the full range of the Higgs mass. The presented results use different statistical samples collected by the Tevatron up to 5.9 fb−1. Combining the most updated limits provided by the two experiments for all the final states analyzed, the Standard Model Higgs boson is excluded at 95% C.L. in the mass range 158-175 GeV/c2, in good agreement with the prediction for the analyzed data sample.

This book provides a general description of the search for and discovery of the Higgs boson (particle) at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. The goal is to provide a relatively brief overview of the issues, instruments and techniques relevant for this search; written by a physicist who was directly involved. The Higgs boson mat be the one particle that was studied the most before its discovery and the story from postulation in 1964 to detection in 2012 is a fascinating one. The story is told here while detailing the fundamentals of particle physics.
