Abstract

A search for minimal standard model (MSM) and minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM), Higgs bosons with masses larger than 3 GeV/c2 has been performed by the OPAL collaboration on e+e- data from LEP corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.24 pb-1. The limits for MSM Higgs bosons have been obtained using the channels Z0→Z0*H0, Z0*→(v {Mathematical expression} or e+e- or μ+, μ-. The search for MSSM Higgs bosons has been performed using the channels Z0→Z0*H0, v {Mathematical expression} or e+e- or μ+μ-), h0 →q {Mathematical expression} and Z0→h0A0, h0A0→(4 jet or τ+τ-→ or 4τ), where h0 and A0 are the two lightest neutral MSSM Higgs bosons. No Higgs boson signal has been observed. The MSM Higgs boson is excluded in the mass range 3 GeV < {Mathematical expression}<25.3 GeV/c2 at the 95% confidence level; limits on the masses of the two lightest neutral MSSM Higgs bosons are obtained for h0 mases up to 40.5 GeV/c2.
