Search for neutral Higgs bosons of the minimal supersymmetric standard model in e+e−interactions at s = 130 - 183 GeV

A search for the lightest neutral scalar and neutral pseudoscalar Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is performed on data collected at LEP by the L3 detector at center-of-mass energies 130GeV≤s≤183GeV. No significant excess of events is observed. Limits on the masses of the lightest neutral and pseudoscalar Higgs bosons are given as a function of tanβ. Lower mass limits at the 95% confidence level are set at mh>70.7GeV and mA>71.0GeV.
