Search for the standard model Higgs boson in the $\tau\tau q \bar q$ final state

We present a search for a low mass Standard Model Higgs boson in events with a final state containing two taus and two jets, in which one tau decays to either a muon or an electron and the other tau decays to hadrons. The search uses data from the D0 experiment with an integrated luminosity of 5 fb$^{-1}$. The final states are sensitive to a combination of associated production of a $W/Z$ boson with a Higgs boson, vector boson fusion and gluon-gluon fusion production processes. No signal is yet detected, and upper limits are placed on the cross section times branching ratio of Standard Model Higgs production.
