Search for the standard model Higgs boson decaying to a pair of taus at CMS
A search for the standard model Higgs boson decaying to $\tau$ pairs is performed using events recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2011 and 2012. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.9(19.4) $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ at a centre-of-mass energy of 7(8) TeV. An excess of events i...

| Sumario: | A search for the standard model Higgs boson decaying to $\tau$ pairs is performed using events recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2011 and 2012.
The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.9(19.4) $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ at a centre-of-mass energy of 7(8) TeV.
An excess of events is observed over a broad range of Higgs mass hypotheses,
with a maximum local significance of $2.93$ standard deviations at $m_{\rm H}$= 120 GeV.
The excess is compatible with the presence of a standard model Higgs boson of mass 125 GeV. |
