Search for decay of a fermiophobic Higgs boson h(f)γγh(f) \to \gamma \gamma with the D0 detector at s\sqrt{s} = 1.96-TeV

We report the results of a search for a narrow resonance decaying into two photons in 1.1 fb1^{-1} of data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider during the period 2002-2006. We find no evidence for such a resonance and set a lower limit on the mass of a fermiophobic Higgs boson of mhf>100m_{h_f}>100 GeV at the 95% C.L. This exclusion limit exceeds those obtained in previous searches at the Tevatron and covers a significant region of the parameter space B(hfγγ)B(h_{f}\to\gamma\gamma) vs. mhfm_{h_f} which was not accessible at the CERN LEP Collider.
