Abstract

Results from the D0 experiment on the search for the Higgs boson of the Standard Model (SM) are presented with particular emphasis on testing the compatibility with recent LHC results on the observation of a Higgs-like particle. The D0 SM Higgs results, their combination and the Tevatron combination of CDF and D0 SM Higgs results are summarized. The article also puts recent developments in a historical context. The combined results from the Tevatron experiments give a local p-value of 0.4% for the background-only hypothesis at a mass of 125 GeV indicating that the combined Tevatron data strongly prefer the presence of a new particle with Standard Model Higgs-like properties in this mass region.
