The Higgs boson mass ranges 112.9-115.5 GeV, 131-238 GeV and 251-466 GeV are excluded at the 95% confidence level (CL), while the range 124-519 GeV is expected to be excluded in the absence of a signal. An excess of events is observed around mH~126GeV with a local significance of 3.5 standard deviations (σ). The local significances of H→γγ, H→ZZ(z.ast;)→ℓ+ℓ-ℓ'+ℓ'- and H→WW(z.ast;)→ℓ+νℓ'-ν- the three most sensitive channels in this mass range, are 2.8σ, 2.1σ and 1.4σ, respectively. The global probability for the background to produce such a fluctuation anywhere in the explored Higgs boson mass range 110-600 GeV is estimated to be ~1.4% or, equivalently, 2.2σ}, organization = {ANPCyT}, organization = {YerPhl, Armenia}, organization = {Australian Research Council}, organization = {BMWF, Austria}, organization = {Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences (ANAS)}, organization = {SSTC, Belarus}, organization = {National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq)}, organization = {Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Sao Paulo (FAPESP)}, organization = {Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada}, organization = {NRC, Canada}, organization = {Canada Foundation for Innovation}, organization = {CERN}, organization = {Comision Nacional de Investigacion Cientifica y Tecnologica (CONICYT)}, organization = {Chinese Academy of Sciences}, organization = {Ministry of Science and Technology, China}, organization = {National Natural Science Foundation of China}, organization = {Departamento Administrativo de Ciencia, Tecnologia e Innovacion Colciencias}, organization = {Ministry of Education, Youth & Sports - Czech Republic}, organization = {Czech Republic Government}, organization = {DNRF, Denmark}, organization = {Danish Natural Science Research Council}, organization = {Lundbeckfonden}, organization = {European Union (EU)}, organization = {European Union (EU) European Research Council (ERC)}, organization = {Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS)}, organization = {CEA-DSM/IRFU, France}, organization = {GNAS, Georgia}, organization = {Federal Ministry of Education & Research (BMBF)}, organization = {German Research Foundation (DFG)}, organization = {HGF, Germany}, organization = {Max Planck Society}, organization = {Alexander von Humboldt Foundation}, organization = {Greek Ministry of Development-GSRT}, organization = {Israel Science Foundation}, organization = {MINERVA, Israel}, organization = {German-Israeli Foundation for Scientific Research and Development}, organization = {DIP, Israel}, organization = {Benoziyo Center, Israel}, organization = {Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN)}, organization = {Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan (MEXT) Japan Society for the Promotion of Science}, organization = {CNRST, Morocco}, organization = {FOM (The Netherlands) Netherlands Government}, organization = {Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) Netherlands Government}, organization = {RCN, Norway}, organization = {Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Poland}, organization = {GRICES, Portugal}, organization = {Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology}, organization = {MERYS (MECTS), Romania}, organization = {Russian Federation}, organization = {JINR}, organization = {MSTD, Serbia}, organization = {MSSR, Slovakia}, organization = {Slovenian Research Agency - Slovenia}, organization = {MVZT, Slovenia}, organization = {DST/NRF, South Africa}, organization = {Spanish Government}, organization = {SRC, Sweden}, organization = {Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden}, organization = {SER, Switzerland}, organization = {Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF)}, organization = {Canton of Bern, Switzerland}, organization = {Canton of Geneva, Switzerland}, organization = {National Science Council of Taiwan}, organization = {Ministry of Energy & Natural Resources - Turkey}, organization = {Leverhulme Trust}, organization = {United States Department of Energy (DOE)}, organization = {National Science Foundation (NSF)}, organization = {Royal Society of London}, organization = {Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC) PP/E000347/1 ST/H001093/1 ST/H001026/2 ST/H00100X/2 ST/I000186/1 ST/K001361/1 MINOS/MINOS+ ST/K001361/1 ATLAS Upgrades ST/K003658/1 ST/L001004/1 ST/I006080/1 ST/I003142/1 ST/H001026/1 ST/M001474/1 ST/K001248/1 ATLAS ST/K001310/1 LHCb Upgrades ST/K001310/1 ATLAS Upgrades ST/I003525/1 ST/K001361/1 LHCb Upgrades ST/F007337/1 PP/E003699/2 ST/K00073X/1 ST/K001310/1 LHCb ST/K001337/1 ST/K000705/1 ST/J004928/1 ST/I005803/1 ST/I003517/1 PP/E003699/1 ST/K001310/1 ST/K001361/1 ATLAS ST/H00100X/1 ST/J005576/1 ST/K003658/1 GRIDPP PP/E003087/1 ST/L000970/1 ATLAS Upgrade ST/L001195/1 ST/K001264/1 ATLAS ST/K001361/1 ATLAS ST/L000970/1 ST/K001337/1 ATLAS ST/J002798/1 ST/H001093/2 GRIDPP PP/E000355/1 ST/I005803/1 GRIDPP ST/L001144/1 ST/H001069/2 ST/K001418/1 ST/K001329/1 ATLAS ST/J004944/1 ST/G502320/1 ST/J004928/1 ATLAS Upgrade ST/K001310/1 ATLAS ST/K001361/1 LHCb ST/K001248/1 ST/M001431/1}, organization = {ICREA}, publisher = {Elsevier}, title = {Combined search for the Standard Model Higgs boson using up to 4.9 fb−1 of pp collision data at √s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC}, doi = {10.1016/j.physletb.2012.02.044}, author = {Aad, G. and Aguilar Saavedra, Juan Antonio and Atlas Collaboration}, }
