Slide  1: title, 
	  HiggsBounds manual reference : arXiv:0811.4169 [hep-ph]
	  and web-site : http://www.ippp.dur.ac.uk/HiggsBounds

Slide  2: outline: motivation / implementation / usage and applications 

Slide  3: heading "motivation"

Slide  4: motivation for Higgs search, LEP and Tevatron turn(ed)
	  non-observation of Higgs signals into limits on cross sections
	  of individual or combinations of signal topologies

Slide  5: Higgs search results, example 1: LEP SM combined limit
	  Definition of S95(mh), "excluded at 95% C.L." and 
	  "predicted" and "observed limits".

Slide  6: Higgs search results, example 2: LEP single topology limits
	  ee -> HZ, H -> bb and H -> tau tau

Slide  7: Higgs search results, example 3: LEP single topology limits
	  ee -> H2 H1, H1 H2 -> bbbb and H2 H1 -> H1 H1 H1 -> 6 taus,
	  Definition of S95(mh1,mh2)

Slide  8: Higgs search results, example 4: Tevatron SM combined limit

Slide  9: Higgs search results, example 5: Tevatron single topology limits
	  pp -> H -> WW -> l nu l nu (cross section ratio limit),
	  pp -> H -> tau tau (absolute cross section limit)

Slide 10: why HiggsBounds? 

Slide 11: what is HiggsBounds?

Slide 12: heading "implementation"

Slide 13: basic idea: 
	  for each topology of an analysis X
	  evaluate Q_model(X) and compare it to Q_observed(X).
	  If Q_model(X) > Q_observed(X) then the model is excluded by 
	  this analyses at 95% C.L. (for limitations of this statement read the paper)
	  Problem: how to combine search results without losing the 95% C.L.?

Slide 14: How to preserve the 95% C.L. limit:
	  obtain Q_expected(X) for each analysis,
	  determine analyses X0 with highest sensitivity for the signal,
	  use only the criterion Q_model(X0) > Q_observed(X0) for exclusion

Slide 15: implemented LEP analyses (version 1.2.0)

Slide 16: implemented Tevatron analyses (version 1.2.0), single topology analyses

Slide 17: implemented Tevatron analyses (version 1.2.0), SM combined analyses

Slide 18: Input required by HiggsBounds for input option effC
	  ("effective couplings")

Slide 19: model predictions calculated from this input: LEP examples

Slide 20: model predictions calculated from this input: Tevatron example

Slide 21: SM ratios of partonic contributions to: 
	  single Higgs, HW and HZ production (used in the Tevatron example)

Slide 22: Sources of SM normalisation:
	  Higgs decay branching ratios : HDECAY 3.303, 
	  Higgs production cross sections : TEV4LHC workshop results

	  website of online version: http://www.ippp.dur.ac.uk/HiggsBounds

Slide 27: application 1: re-evaluation of SM exclusion with an improved SM cross section prediction 
	  improved SM prediction for single Higgs production [Anastasiou, Boughezal, Petriello '08],
	  updated determination of PDFs: MSTW2008

	  exclusion curve due to old/improved single Higgs production cross section 
	  with MRST2006 and MSTW2008 PDFs
          (Tevatron analyses of before March 2009)

Slide 29: application 1,
	  the same using Tevatron analyses of up to August 2009

Slide 30: application 1, exclusion curve due improved result with MSTW2008 PDFs
	  and PDF uncertainty band displayed
	  (Tevatron analyses of before March 2009)

Slide 32: application 2: SM versus 4th Generation Model
	  partial decay with Gamma(H -> gg)_model = 9 Gamma(H -> gg)_SM,
	  exclusion plot using LEP *and* Tevatron analyses (before March 2009)

Slide 33: application 2, the same using Tevatron analyses of up to August 2009

Slide 34: application 3: MSSM benchmark scenarios, exclusion update
	  comparison for the mh-max scenario in the m_h-tanb plane:
	  published LEP result from 2006 versus HiggsBounds 
	  using a new value for m_top and an improved MSSM Higgs mass prediction.
	  The Tevatron exclusion included in the plot.

Slide 35: application 3, 2 plots of the m_A-tanb plane:
	  - LEP and Tevatron exclusion using HiggsBounds
	  - channels of highest sensitivity 
	  (Tevatron analyses of before March 2009)

Slide 37: application 4: Randall-Sundrum model, excluded parameter space
	  2 plots in the m_h-m_phi plane (2 mass eigenstates in the RS model):
	  - LEP and Tevatron exclusion using HiggsBounds,
          - channels of highest sensitivity 
	  (Tevatron analyses of before March 2009 and including the channel ee -> HZ, H -> 2 jets 
	   (not yet in the public version))
