Search for the Higgs boson in H->WW(*) decays in p anti-p collisions at S**(1/2) = 1.96-TEV

We present a search for the standard model Higgs boson in H->WW(*), decays with ee, emu and mumu final states in p anti-p collisions at a center-of-mass energy of S**(1/2) = 1.96-TEV. The data, collected from April 2002 to June 2004 with the D0 detector, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 300 - 325 pb**(-1), depending on the final state. The number of events observed is consistent with the expectation from backgrounds. Limits from the combination of all three channels on the Higgs production cross section times branching ratio sigma*BR(H->WW(*) are presented.
