Introduction Minimal universal extra dimensions (mued) is an interesting candidate for physics beyond the standard model (BSM) All the SM fields propagate in the compactified extra dimensions (only ED assumed in this case) Tower of Kaluza-Klein (KK) states KK masses given by (at the tree level): m n = n R + m SM KK particle GeV~TeV R = size of the ED n = excitation level (n=0 => SM particle) MeV~GeV => very small contribution to mn mkk The KK particle spectrum is naturally compressed Low momentum (soft) particles produced in the decays Experimentally challenging signature R ( 700GeV) m γ q Z ± γ m~o(0) GeV soft SM decay products The lightest KK particle is stable Dark maer candidate Parameters of the theory: ultra-violet cut-off ΛR [3, 40] small m larger m
3 Typical signature Two KK quarks (or gluons) are produced in proton-proton collisions One typically decays hadronically (producing only jets) The other decays leptonically, often to KK Z which, in turn, gives two opposite sign same-flavour leptons KK gamma is the lightest particle of the model and a dark-maer candidate It doesn t interact with the detector leaving a missing transverse (ET miss ) energy signature jets opposite-sign soft leptons large ET miss Large branching fraction to leptons KK W & Z decay to leptons with Br~00% Dilepton channel is a promising signature
4 Event selection Full 0 ATLAS dataset (L=0. fb - ) The selection determined by optimising S/ B in the signal region (SR) Mainly focus on smaller m region ( ΛR 0 ) Simple -bin counting experiment, no shape fiing Baseline selection: Trigger: ET miss > 80 GeV Two soft muons: 6 GeV < pt < 5 GeV Two (or more) jets - often the leading jet is coming from the initial state radiation (ISR) Large ET miss SR definition: High transverse mass (mt) region calculated with nd µ ISR jet Events ET miss 5 0 4 0 3 0 0 0 jet p jets T (GeV) N b tag (GeV) E miss T ATLAS Work in progress - Ldt=0. fb, m T (GeV) miss / incl signal Data (0) DY barv R900_ R40 >70,5 0 >70 > 80 Data (0) DY barv R900_ R40 B-jet veto (among 3 leading jets) These cuts mainly reject the dominant -bar background Data/SM - 0.5 0.5 N b-jets >5 GeV 0 0.5.5.5 3 3.5 4 N b-jets >5 GeV Nb-jets>5 GeV
