We present the result of the searches for a low mass Standard Model Higgs boson performed at the Tevatron ppbar collider (sqrt(s) =1.96 TeV) by the CDF and D0 experiments with an integrated luminosity of up to 8.5 fb^-1. Individual searches…
We study the Higgs boson decay to W+W-, where one boson decays to leptons, and the other decays to c+jet at Tevatron. Given the current charm tagging acceptances, this channel can help improve and confirm the current combined Tevatron…

We present CDF and D0 searches for a Standard Model Higgs boson produced associatively with a W or Z boson at sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV using up to 1 fb^-1 of analyzed Tevatron data collected from February 2002 to February 2006. For Higgs masses…
We analyze the 2011 LHC Higgs data in the context of simplified new physics models addressing the naturalness problem. These models are expected to contain new particles with sizable couplings to the Higgs boson, which can easily modify the…
Higgs boson searches are commonly considered one of the main objectives of particle physics nowadays. The latest results obtained by the CDF and D0 collaborations are presented here when searching for Higgs boson decaying into a W-boson…
We show that the recent discovery of a new boson at the LHC, which we assume to be a Higgs boson, and the observed enhancement in its diphoton decays compared to the SM prediction, can be explained by a new doublet of charged vector bosons…

We have investigated the sensitivity of CMS for finding the Higgs boson in the H0 -> bbbar channel. An excellent b-tagging performance and a good jet resolution are the main requirements needed for a successful event selection. In the…
The recent observation of a 125 GeV neutral Higgs boson ($H_{\rm obs}$) provides additional input for charged Higgs boson searches in the $H^\pm \to W^\pm H_{\rm obs}$ decay channel at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We reassess the…
We review that the heavy CP-even MSSM Higgs boson is still a viable candidate to explain the Higgs signal at 125 GeV. This is possible in a highly constrained parameter region, that will be probed by LHC searches for the CP-odd Higgs boson…
