Figure 4: CDF Exclusion limits for cross section times products of branching ratios <strong>de</strong>cay as a function of the<br />

<strong>de</strong>cay length of a Hid<strong>de</strong>n Valley particle coming from the interaction h → HV HV → b ¯ bb ¯ b.<br />

against that background is provi<strong>de</strong>d by the HV <strong>de</strong>cay length, ζ, <strong>and</strong> the b jet impact parameter,<br />

ψ, which have values near zero for the background but are of or<strong>de</strong>r centimeters for the signal.<br />

There is only one event observed with a large value of ζ <strong>and</strong> limits on the cross section time<br />

branching ratio as a function of <strong>de</strong>cay length are shown in Figure 4 by CDF for a sample of data<br />

having an integrated luminosity of 5.8 fb −1 .<br />

6 Summary<br />

CDF <strong>and</strong> D0 are looking for Higgs bosons in a variety of mo<strong>de</strong>ls beyond the st<strong>and</strong>ard mo<strong>de</strong>l <strong>and</strong><br />

are using advanced analysis techniques in a harsh background environment to do this. Results<br />

were shown for data samples having an integrated luminosity between 2.4 <strong>and</strong> 8.2 fb −1 . The<br />

MSSM sensitivity to tan β of or<strong>de</strong>r 30 has been obtained. With the full dataset this sensitivity<br />

could be as low as 20. CDF now exclu<strong>de</strong>s a fourth generation mo<strong>de</strong>l for 123 < mh < 202 GeV/c 2<br />

comparable to the combined Tevatron limits <strong>and</strong> the CMS limits. When a fermiophobic Higgs<br />

is found, D0 claims that it must have a mass greater than 112 GeV/c 2 . The Hid<strong>de</strong>n Valley has<br />

been explored but nothing is seen just yet.<br />
