We present a search for a Higgs boson decaying to two W bosons in pp collisions at √ s = 1.96TeV center-of-mass energy. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb −1 collected with the CDF II detector. We find no evidence for production of a Higgs boson with mass between 110 and 200 GeV/c 2 , and determine upper limits on the production cross section. For the mass of 160 GeV/c 2 , where the analysis is most sensitive, the observed (expected) limit is 0.7 pb (0.9 pb) at 95% Bayesian credibility level which is 1.7 (2.2) times the standard model cross section.

T2K (Tokai to Kamioka) is a long baseline neutrino experiment with the primary goal of measuring the neutrino mixing angle θ 13 . It uses a muon neutrino beam, produced at the J-PARC accelerator facility in Tokai, sent through a near detector complex on its way to the far detector, Super-Kamiokande. Appearance of electron neutrinos at the far detector due to oscillation is used to measure the value of θ 13 .

The T2K experiment is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. Its main goal is to measure the last unknown lepton sector mixing angle θ13θ13 by observing νeνe appearance in a νμνμ beam. It also aims to make a precision measurement of the known oscillation parameters, View the MathML sourceΔm232 and sin22θ23sin22θ23, via νμνμ disappearance studies. Other goals of the experiment include various neutrino cross-section measurements and sterile neutrino searches. The experiment uses an intense proton beam generated by the J-PARC accelerator in Tokai, Japan, and is composed of a neutrino beamline, a near detector complex (ND280), and a far detector (Super-Kamiokande) located 295 km away from J-PARC. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the instrumentation aspect of the T2K experiment and a summary of the vital information for each subsystem

and comprise 7.482 × 10 20 protons on target in neutrino mode, which yielded in the far detector 32 e-like and 135 μ-like events, and 7.471 × 10 20 protons on target in antineutrino mode, which yielded 4 e-like and 66 μ-like events. Reactor measurements of sin 2 2θ 13 have been used as an additional constraint. The one-dimensional confidence interval at 90% for the phase δ CP spans the range (−3.13, −0.39) for normal mass ordering. The CP conservation hypothesis (δ CP ¼ 0, π) is excluded at 90% C.L.
