SUSY Experimental Results from CMS and ATLAS

SUSY Experimental Results from CMS and ATLAS Kenichi Hatakeyama Baylor University Review of Discovery Physics Results from ICHEP Argonne National Laboratory July 17, 2012

Why SUSY Now? Three very compelling reasons: Allows unification of gauge couplings Can predict a dark matter particle candidate Provide a solution to the hierarchy problem: Light Higgs (125 GeV!?) needs new physics to stabilize mass The contribution from a Dirac fermion loop diverges quadratically July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 3

July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 5

SUSY Searches at the LHC Many powerful inclusive searches have been pursued Searching in a broad spectrum of new physics scenarios main sensitivities to gluino/squark production Different observables & search strategies have been used for complementarities and robustness Some of them are even reaching to 3 rd generation sparticles Cross Section (pb) More targeted searches also started to be very vigorously pursued 3 rd generation sparticles, gaugino production, etc Difficult phase space (compressed spectra) and more SUSY scenarios July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 6

Missing ET Missing ET (MET) is the key variable for a majority of SUSY searches MET performance in ATLAS and CMS is comparable ATLAS (hadron) calorimeter performs better. CMS compensates using particle-flow technique Eur. Phys. J. C72 (2012) 1844 J. Instrum.6 (2011) P09001 July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 7

Both CMS and ATLAS have good modeling of pileup in simulation and also reducing pileup effects 2011 data Number of reconstructed primary vertices ATLAS talk @ Calor 2012 CMS DPS-2012-013 July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 8

Inclusive Searches Both CMS & ATLAS have performed inclusive searches in various channels Inclusive searches cut on hadronic activities (HT, jet multiplicity) and METlike variables (MET, Meff, MHT, MET/ HT, MT2, αt, razor, etc) Searches with different lepton categories Different BG compositions & less BG with more leptons Different sensitivities to a variety of SUSY scenarios Adding b-jets lower backgrounds, become more sensitive SUSY 3 rd gen squark production Adding photons, taus allow to explore even more SUSY scenarios All hadronic Single lepton OS dileptons SS dileptons Multileptons QCD Z νν W+jets ttbar W+jets ttbar Z+jets ttbar ZZ/ZW/WW ttz/w Rare SM ttbar ZZ/ZW/WW ttz/w Rare SM More signal rate/more BG Smaller rate/more BG control July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 9

CMSSM / msugra Inclusive SUSY results have been conventionally shown in the context of constrained MSSM / msugra CMSSM has only 5 parameters: universal scalar and gaugino masses, m 0, m 1/2, A 0, tanβ, sin(μ). Very predictive; however, the universality constraints result in significant restrictions on possible SUSY particle mass spectra Now, it s common to interprete results in more general topology-based simplified model m 1/2, common gaugino mass [GeV] m 0, common scalar mass [GeV] m(gluino) > 720 GeV m(squark) > 1.2 TeV July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 12

Simplified Model (SMS) Focus on topology instead of underlying physics model Any model with same topology (parent particle mass, decay chain, daughters mass) can be easily compared with experimental results. Building blocks that can be used to generalize to a more complete model -space j The gluino mass exclusions depends strongly on the LSP mass. The phase space in which the LSP and gluino (mother) masses are close to each other (compress spectra = small ΔM) are much less constrained g ~ g ~ j LSP LSP j j arxiv:1207.1898 arxiv:1207.1798 May 9, 2011 13
