| The CDF II detector has recorded nearly 6 fb-1 of Tevatron proton anti-proton collisions at 1.96 TeV. Observation or exclusion of the standard model Higgs Boson has become one of the primary goals of the CDF physics program. This talk will present a summary of recent search results in the main Higgs production/decay modes utilized in CDF searches. The focus will be on experimental techniques including b-jet identification, lepton selection, and multivariate signal/background discrimination. The latest limits on Higgs production cross-sections from CDF will be reviewed, along with the most recent (CDF+D0) Tevatron combined limits. The prospects for future improvements in sensitivity will also be discussed. |
