Abstract: (APS)
The experimental evidence regarding a light Higgs boson is reviewed. It is shown that a light Higgs boson with almost any mass between 14 MeV/c2 and 1 GeV/c2 is still allowed by existing data. The only limit in this range comes from B-decay data which, for sufficiently large values of the top-quark mass, excludes a Higgs boson with a mass between 2mμ and ∼700 MeV/c2. Discussions of light-Higgs-boson emission in the decays of K, π, μ, τ, η’, and Υ are also given.
