Search for the standard model Higgs boson in the H -> ZZ -> 2l2v channel in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV

Abstrakt
A search for the standard model Higgs boson in the H -> ZZ -> 2l2v decay channel, where l = e or mu, in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is presented. The data were collected at the LHC, with the CMS detector, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb(-1).
No significant excess is observed above the background expectation, and upper limits are set on the Higgs boson production cross section. The presence of the standard model Higgs boson with a mass in the 270-440GeV range is excluded at 95% confidence level.
