Abstract

We combine results of CDF and D0 searches for a Standard-Model Higgs boson in data from ppbar collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron with sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV. With 260-950 pb-1 collected at D0, and 360-1000 pb-1 collected at CDF, the 95%CL upper limits are a factor of 10.4(3.8) higher than the expected cross section for mH =115(160) GeV/c2. This result extends significantly the individual limits of each experiment.
