    abstract = "We combine searches by the CDF and D0 Collaborations for the associated
production of a Higgs boson with a W or Z boson and subsequent decay of
the Higgs boson to a bottom-antibottom quark pair. The data, originating
from Fermilab Tevatron p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV,
correspond to integrated luminosities of up to 9.7 fb(-1). The searches
are conducted for a Higgs boson with mass in the range 100-150 GeV/c(2).
We observe an excess of events in the data compared with the background
predictions, which is most significant in the mass range between 120 and
135 GeV/c(2). The largest local significance is 3.3 standard deviations,
corresponding to a global significance of 3.1 standard deviations. We
interpret this as evidence for the presence of a new particle consistent
with the standard model Higgs boson, which is produced in association
with a weak vector boson and decays to a bottom-antibottom quark pair."
