28 Dark Matter, SUSY, LHC (II) Two questions: - do present (WMAP) constraints on DM assure SUSY detection at the LHC, and what limits do they imply on sparticle masses? - can we measure the neutralino-1 mass? R.Cashmore Dark Matter 3 28

36 WMAP DM results and compatibility with LHC SUSY reach high tanβ = 35, µ > 0 regime m = 0.4m χ 1/2

37 SUSY at SLHC (I) SLHC Higher integrated luminosity brings an obvious increase in mass reach in squark, gluino searches, i.e. in SUSY discovery potential; this is not too demanding on detectors as very high E t jets, E t miss are involved, large pile-up not so detrimental with SLHC the SUSY reach is increased by 500 GeV, up to 3 TeV in squark and gluino masses Notice advantage of a 28 TeV machine. but this is just the reach, the main advantage of increased statistics should be in the sparticle spectrum reconstruction possibilities, larger fraction of spectrum, more precision, but this would require detectors of comparable performance to present ones R.Cashmore Dark Matter 3 37

38 Model dependent tests, sparticle masses, neutralino mass - If a viable DM candidate is found initially (events with large missing Et, stable) assume specific consistent model e.g. CMSSM / msugra. - Measure model parameters (m 0, m 1/2, tan(β), sign(µ), A 0 for msugra). - Check consistency with accelerator constraints (m h, g µ -2, b sγ etc.) - Estimate Ω χ h 2 consistency check with astrophysics (WMAP etc.) - Ultimate test of DM only possible in conjunction with astroparticle experiments measure m χ, σ χp, φ sun etc.

48 Dark Matter Strategy SUSY Dark Matter studies at ATLAS will proceed in four stages: 1)SUSY Discovery phase (discussed by Marco for CMS) success assumed! 2)Inclusive Studies (measurement of SUSY Mass Scale, comparison of significance in inclusive In this channels). talk focus on Stages 2, 3 and 4 3)Exclusive studies and interpretation within specific model framework (e.g. Constrained R.Cashmore Dark Matter 3 48

49 Following any discovery of SUSY next task will be to test broad features of potential Dark Matter candidate. Non-pointing Question 1: Is R-Parity photons from χ 0 1 Gγ Conserved? Inclusive Studies GMSB Point 1b (Physics TDR) If YES possible DM candidate ATLAS LHC experiments sensitive only to LSP lifetimes < 1 ms (<< t U 13.7 Gyr) R-Parity Violated LHC Point 5 (Physics TDR) ATLAS Question 2: Is the LSP the lightest neutralino? Natural in many MSSM models If YES then test for consistency with astrophysics If NO then what is it? R-Parity Conserved e.g. Light Gravitino DM from GMSB models (not considered here) R.Cashmore Dark Matter 3 49

50 If a viable DM candidate is found initially assume specific consistent model e.g. CMSSM / msugra.
