Title:     Search for the Higgs boson and anomalous quartic gauge couplings in the WW to electrons channel with the D0 experiment at the Tevatron

Abstract: A lot can be learned from the electroweak sector of the Standard Model by studying WW production. First, we present the search for the Higgs boson at D0 in the WW decay mode in the dileptonic channel, which allows to test the electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism. We also present two D0 analyses probing the non-abelian structure of the SU(2) gauge group: the search for anomalous quartic WW\gamma\gamma gauge boson couplings in the dielectron plus missing transverse energy final state, and limits on anomalous triple gauge boson couplings from WW, WZ and W\gamma production.

Stimulants available 15 minutes before the talk.
