Abstract:
A search for the Higgs boson with a mass of about GeV decaying into a pair of leptons is performed with a data sample of proton-proton collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of fb, collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of TeV. Final states in all decay combinations (both hadronic and leptonic) are examined. The observed (expected) deviation from the background-only hypothesis corresponds to a significance of 4.1 (3.2) standard deviations, and the measured signal strength is . This is evidence for the existence of decays, consistent with the Standard Model expectation for a Higgs boson with GeV.Note:
