Abstract

We searched for the standard model Higgs boson using approximately 5 fb−1 of 7TeV pp collisions data collected with the CMS detector at LHC. We exclude at 95% confidence level a standard model Higgs boson with mass between 127.5 and 600 GeV. The expected 95% confidence level exclusion if the Higgs boson is not present is from 114.5 and 543GeV. The most significant excess is observed at 125 GeV with a local significance of 2.8σ. The excess is consistent both with background fluctuation and a standard model Higgs boson with mass of about 125 GeV.
