Search for the standard model Higgs boson in the $ \mathrm { H \to ZZ \to \ell^+ \ell^- \tau^+ \tau^- } $ decay channel in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV
J. High Energy Phys. 03 (2012) 081
Abstract: A search is reported for the standard model Higgs boson in the decay mode H to ZZ to tau plus lepton pairs, where the leptons are either electrons or muons, in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7 inverse femtobarn collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. No evidence is found for a significant deviation from the background expectation. An upper limit four to twelve times larger than the predicted value is set at 95% confidence level for the product of the standard model Higgs boson production cross section and decay branching fraction in the mass range 190 < m(H) < 600 GeV.
