Search for the Standard Model Higgs boson produced in association with a vector boson and decaying to a b-quark pair with the ATLAS detector

This Letter presents the results of a direct search with the ATLAS detector at the LHC for a Standard Model Higgs boson of mass 110⩽m H ⩽130 GeV produced in association with a W or Z boson and decaying to bb¯. Three decay channels are considered: ZH→ℓ + ℓ − bb¯ WH→ℓνbb¯ and ZH→νν¯bb¯ where ℓ corresp...
