abstract = {A search for a Higgs boson decaying into two photons is described. The analysis is performed using a
dataset recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC from pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of
7 TeV, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.8 fb?1. Limits are set on the cross section of
the standard model Higgs boson decaying to two photons. The expected exclusion limit at 95% confidence
level is between 1.4 and 2.4 times the standard model cross section in the mass range between 110 and
150 GeV. The analysis of the data excludes, at 95% confidence level, the standard model Higgs boson
decaying into two photons in the mass range 128 to 132 GeV. The largest excess of events above the
expected standard model background is observed for a Higgs boson mass hypothesis of 124 GeV with a
local significance of 3.1? . The global significance of observing an excess with a local significance  3.1?
anywhere in the search range 110?150 GeV is estimated to be 1.8? . More data are required to ascertain
the origin of this excess.},
