dc.description.abstract | A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying to two W bosons with the subsequent decay to a final state containing one lepton, one neutrino, and two (or three) jets ($H\rightarrow WW^{*}\rightarrow\ell\nu | |

dc.description.abstract | at center of mass energy $\sqrt{s} =$ 7~TeV. No significant excess is observed over the expected Standard Model background. | |
dc.description.abstract | Limits on the Higgs production cross section are derived for masses between $\mH$ = 300 GeV and $\mH$ = 600 GeV. For a Higgs | |

dc.description.abstract | branching ratio for $H\rightarrow WW^{*}$ is 2.2 pb, or approximately 1.9 times the Standard Model prediction. | |
