Observation of an excess in the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in the H →WW(*)→lνlν decay mode with the ATLAS detector

Abstract: A Higgs boson search in the H->WW->lnulnu decay mode has been performed using proton-proton collision data collected in 2011 and 2012 with the ATLAS detector. An excess of events is observed consistent with the presence of a Standard Model Higgs boson with a mass of approxima...

description Abstract: A Higgs boson search in the H-&gt;WW-&gt;lnulnu decay mode has been performed using proton-proton collision data collected in 2011 and 2012 with the ATLAS detector. An excess of events is observed consistent with the presence of a Standard Model Higgs boson with a mass of approximately 125 GeV. The observed p-value at a mass of 125 GeV is 3 times 10<sup>-3</sup> (corresponding to a significance of 2.8 &sigma;), while the expected p-value and significance are 0.01 and 2.3 &sigma;, respectively.
