Title: Compressed supersymmetry after 1 fb⁻¹ at the Large Hadron Collider

Abstract

We study the reach of the Large Hadron Collider with 1 fb⁻¹ of data at √s=7 TeV for several classes of supersymmetric models with compressed mass spectra, using jets and missing transverse energy cuts like those employed by ATLAS for summer 2011 data. In the limit of extreme compression, the best limits come from signal regions that do not require more than 2 or 3 jets and that remove backgrounds by requiring more missing energy rather than a higher effective mass.

Hunt for new phenomena using large jet multiplicities and missing transverse momentum with ATLAS in 4.7 fb^-1 of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV proton-proton collisions

Journal Article Aad, Georges ; Abbott, Brad ; Abdallah, Jalal ; ... - Journal of High Energy Physics

Results are presented of a search for new particles decaying to large numbers of jets in association with missing transverse momentum, using 4.7 fb{sup -1} of pp collision data at {radical}s = 7 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider in 2011. The event selection requires missing transverse momentum, no isolated electrons or muons, and from {ge}6 to {ge}9 jets. No evidence is found for physics beyond the Standard Model. The results are interpreted in the context of a MSUGRA/CMSSM supersymmetric model, where, for large universal scalar mass m{sub 0}, gluino masses smaller than 840 GeVmore »« less

Search for supersymmetry in events with large missing transverse momentum, jets, and at least one tau lepton in 20 fb $^{- 1}$ of $\sqrt{s} =$ 8 TeV proton-proton collision data with the ATLAS detector

Dataset Aad, Georges ; The ATLAS collaboration

CERN-LHC. A search for supersymmetry (SUSY) in events with large missing transverse momentum, jets, at least one hadronically decaying tau lepton and zero or one additional light leptons (electron/muon), has been performed using 20.3 fb^-1 of proton-proton collision data at sqrt(s)=8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No excess above the Standard Model background expectation is observed in the various signal regions and 95% confidence level upper limits on the visible cross section for new phenomena are set. The results of the analysis are interpreted in several SUSY scenarios, significantly extending previous limits obtained inmore »« less

Searches for supersymmetry with the ATLAS detector using final states with two leptons and missing transverse momentum in s = 7 TeV proton–proton collisions

Journal Article Aad, G. ; Abbott, B. ; Abdallah, J. ; ... - Physics Letters B

Results of three searches are presented for the production of supersymmetric particles decaying into final states with missing transverse momentum and exactly two isolated leptons, e or μ . The analysis uses a data sample collected during the first half of 2011 that corresponds to a total integrated luminosity of 1 fb^-1 of √s=7 TeV proton–proton collisions recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Opposite-sign and same-sign dilepton events are separately studied, with no deviations from the Standard Model expectation observed. Additionally, in opposite-sign events, a search is made for an excess of same-flavour over different-flavour leptonmore »« less

We discuss the impact for light neutralinos in an effective minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model of the recent results presented by the CMS and ATLAS Collaborations at the CERN Large Hadron Collider for a search of supersymmetry in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 35 pb{sup -1}. We find that, in the specific case of light neutralinos, efficiencies for the specific signature searched by ATLAS (jets+ missing transverse energy and an isolated lepton) imply a lower sensitivity compared to CMS (which searches for jets+ missing transverse energy).

Journal Article Aaboud, M. ; Aad, G. ; Abbott, B. ; ... - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

Results of a search for new phenomena in final states with an energetic jet and large missing transverse momentum are reported. The search uses proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb^–1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected in 2015 and 2016 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events are required to have at least one jet with a transverse momentum above 250 GeV and no leptons (e or μ). Several signal regions are considered with increasing requirements on the missing transverse momentum above 250 GeV. Good agreement is observed between themore »« less
