Description
The methods and results of the searches for the Standard Model scalar
boson predicted by the Higgs mechanism will be described. The analysis
is based on 5 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data collected with the
CMS detector at LHC at 7 TeV centre-of-mass energy in 2011. The
results of these searches exclude at 95% CL a large Higgs boson mass
range. At low mass, between approximately the limit set by LEP
experiments, 115 GeV and about 130 GeV, we observe some excess in the
data that will be described.
