Abstract
We combine searches by the CDF and D0 Collaborations for the standard model Higgs boson with mass in the range produced in the gluon-gluon fusion, , , , and vector boson fusion processes, and decaying in the , , , , and modes. The data correspond to integrated luminosities of up to and were collected at the Fermilab Tevatron in collisions at . The searches are also interpreted in the context of fermiophobic and fourth generation models. We observe a significant excess of events in the mass range between 115 and . The local significance corresponds to 3.0 standard deviations at , consistent with the mass of the Higgs boson observed at the LHC, and we expect a local significance of 1.9 standard deviations. We separately combine searches for , , , and . The observed signal strengths in all channels are consistent with the presence of a standard model Higgs boson with a mass of .
