CMS search for Standard Model Higgs: H$\to$W${}^{+}$W${}^{-}$ and H$\to$ZZ

Abstract

A search for the Standard Model Higgs decaying to W${}^{+}$W${}^{-}$ and ZZ in pp collisions from LHC at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV using up to 1.7 fb${}^{-1}$ of data recorded by the CMS detector is presented. This search covers a mass range from 110 GeV/c${}^2$ to 600 GeV/c${}^2$. No significant excess above Standard Model background expectations is observed. Upper limits on the production cross section are derived.
