Search for SUSY at CMS in lepton or photon final states
CMS in one slide Optimal design for reconstructing leptons & photons Compact & precisely aligned detector with B=3.8 T Calorimeters operating inside the CMS Magnet Photon, Electron & Muon reconstruction: outstanding performance
SM re-discovery Good understanding of the detector performance already at 36 pb CMS simulation is better than expected Plethora of SM measurements already published by CMS In this talk, we are going to focus on SUSY search analyses searching for new physics beyond the SM 3
SUSY searches No need to motivate SUSY here, in simple words : We search for experimental evidence of an excess of events in the tail of the MET distribution Analysis challenge minimize B and its uncertainty while retaining high signal efficiency for a given event selection Leptonic SUSY searches: Less B and δβ BUT less inclusive compared to full-hadronic Might be capable to characterize a possible excess by probing the sparticles mass spectrum (SUSY spectroscopy) SUS1-011 beautiful CMS analysis 4

Searching for an excess in the l + γ + ΜΕΤ final state SUS1-00

Searching for an excess in the Same Sign Di-Leptons channel SUS1-0
Same Sign Di-Leptons Very rare final state for Standard Model processes Low expected backgrounds Experimental backgrounds dominated by fake leptons (fake=non-prompt) from t-tbar, W+jets and QCD Many models including SUSY predict an increase of the Same Sign Di-Leptons event yield (e.g. UED, T5/3) Depending on model, expect hadronic activity and/or missing transverse energy in events This physics search uses all flavors of leptons including τ ± 15

Backup:JZB for Signal In signal Z 0 is not produced promptly in the hard scatter LSP and Z 0 have common mother (angular correlation) jets Σ pt pt(z 0 ) MET Z 0 helps LSP to balance the jet system, results in large JZB when p*<pm pm = LAB momentum of Z 0 s mother p* = Z 0 momentum at its mother s rest frame 4
Backup: JZB for Background consider the simplest case: events with Z0 + 1 jet Z0 <--- ----> J (jet energy over measurement, JZB>0) Z0 <--- --> J (jet energy under measurement, JZB<0) J,Z0 are back-to-back giving MET = JZB JZB probes the jet energy response. Probability for under-measurement is greater due to energy losses Using JZB<0 flipped to model JZB>0 leads to systematic over-prediction in Z 0 + 1 jet events (conservative if a discovery is to be claimed) 5
