Resumo

A search is performed for the standard model Higgs boson in 5.2 fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV, collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The final state considered is a pair of b jets and large missing transverse energy, as expected from p (p) over bar -> ZH -> v (v) over barb (b) over bar production. The search is also sensitive to the WH -> lvb (b) over bar channel when the charged lepton is not identified. For a Higgs boson mass of 115 GeV, a limit is set at the 95% C.L. on the cross section multiplied by branching fraction for [p (p) over bar -> (Z/W)H](H -> b (b) over bar) that is a factor of 3.7 larger than the standard model value, consistent with the factor of 4.6 expected.
