Abstract
We present recent results from searches for a standard model Higgs boson by the CDF experiment at the Tevatron pp¯ collider with the full Run II data set. An excess of events above the expected background is observed and is the strongest in the associated production search channels where the Higgs is produced together with a W or Z boson, and then decays to a bottom-antibottom quark pair, with a global significance of 2.5σ. Both limits and best fit values of the Higgs production cross section are presented. For a Higgs mass of 125GeV/c2, the best agreement with data in the (σWH+σZH)×Br(H→bb¯)=291±113118fb.
