Limits on the production of the standard model Higgs boson in pp collisions at sqrt{s} = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector
The first search for a Higgs-like boson at LHC is presented. The H->ZZ->4l channel, where Nikolopoulos was the coordinator, co-editor and principal author of the analysis, was a major component of the search. He has developed several parts of the analysis (event selection, background estimates, etc), and as the coordinator he was decisively involved in all related experimental and phenomenological aspects. The ATLAS Collaboration acknowledged these contributions by inviting him to present the analysis and results in the workshop for Higgs Cross Sections at the LHC in Upton, U.S.A.
