Search for a light Higgs boson decaying to long-lived weakly interacting particles in proton-proton collisions at √s=7TeV with the atlas detector

A search for the decay of a light Higgs boson (120-140 GeV) to a pair of weakly interacting, long-lived particles in 1.94fb - 1 of proton-proton collisions at √s=7TeV recorded in 2011 by the ATLAS detector is presented. The search strategy requires that both long-lived particles decay inside the muo...
