Abstract
The excluded tan β range and Higgs boson mass region in the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) depend on several parameters. The Higgs boson masses, cross-sections and branching fractions have been determined including two-loop diagrammatic calculations. The limit obtained with a more general scan over the parameter space of the MSSM are compared with those in the so-called benchmark scenario. The combination of the searches for Higgs particles in the 1999 data collected by the DELPHI collaboration at center-of-mass energies between 191.6 and 201.7 GeV allows stringent limits to be set in combination with previous DELPHI results. In addition, an interpretation in the framework of the general MSSM scan of the 2000 LEP data at the hightest energies between 201.7 and 209.0 GeV is given. We show that the current data for the HZ and hA production can be comfortably accommodated in the MSSM.Keywords
