The expected (dashed) and observed (solid) 95% C.L. upper limits on the cross-section,normalized to the SM cross-section,as a function of the Higgs boson mass.(the jump in the expected and observedlimits at 220 GeV is due to the change inthe selection at that point)

ATLAS SM Higgs Combination ATL-CONF-2011-135

The expected (dashed) andobserved (solid) cross-sectionlimits for the individual search channels, normalized to the Standard Model Higgs boson cross-section, as functions of the Higgs boson mass.

Correlated uncertainties (Jet Energy Scale, Luminosity, etc) taken into account.In other cases, e.g. data driven background estimates, the uncertainties are uncorrelated.Careful treatment of theory uncertainties: - Higgs boson cross-section uncertainties in QCD scale and PDF+αs

- PDF uncertainty is fully correlated among different channels and it is included in the combination

ATLAS SM Higgs Combinations

Combined upper limit onthe SM Higgs productioncross section divided by theSM expectation. This is a95% CL limit using theCLs method in the entiremass range

Standard Model Higgs boson mass excluded at 95% C.L.:

Page 27: Поиски  хиггсовского  бозона,  суперсимметрии  и тяжелых векторных бозонов в эксперименте АТЛАС

Perspectives

A 95% CL exclusion for the whole mass range could be achieved by combiningATLAS-CMS results for an integrated luminosity of about 4-5 fb-1

2012 (with hopefully additional 10 to 20 fb-1 ) should bring more answers

SUSY modeling> 100 free parameters in general MSSM

Constrained models:− various SUSY breaking scenarios− assume unification at GUT scale→ only a few free parameters

Toy models (phenomenological models):−assume mass and hierarchy of sparticles−assume specific decay chain

Model independent sensitivity:cross-section x efficiency x acceptance (σAε) can be used to test other models

R-Parity:introduced to suppress violation of leptonic and baryonic numbers

R-Parity conserving (RPC):−SUSY particles produced in pairs−lightest SUSY particle (LSP) stable → missing transverse momentum (ET

miss )

R-Parity violating (RPV):- long-lived particles → displaced vertices → particles reaching muon spectrometer- resonance searches

Page 31: Поиски  хиггсовского  бозона,  суперсимметрии  и тяжелых векторных бозонов в эксперименте АТЛАС

31

Searches for SUSYAt the LHC sparticles are pair produced,dominantly squarks and gluinos via the strong interaction (σ ~ 1 pb).They decay via cascades into the stable LSP (neutralino or gravitino), assuming R-parity conservation.Common signature:multiple, high energetic jets and transverse missing momentum

Distinguish final states by additional particles:zero, one, two, .. leptons (e, μ), two photons, b-jets

Incomplete event reconstruction due to LSPNo mass peakSUSY is in the tails of the distributions

SM backgrounds (top, W/Z+jets, QCD) are takenfrom/verified in control regions

Famous historical precedents

Clean signatures:-bump in invariant mass- well controllable background

Experimental challenges: -no mass predictions;-measured objects O(1 TeV), - resolution and efficiency based on extrapolation and simulation.

• Aplanarity: the smallest eigenvalue of the momentum

tensor• HT;3p : the transverse momentum of all but the

two leading jets, normalized to the sum of absolute values of all longitudinal momenta in the event

• The anti-kt algorithm constructs, for each input object (either energy cluster or particle) i, the quantities dij and

diB as follows: where kti is the transverse momentum of object i with

respect to the beam direction. A list containing all the dij and diB values is compiled. If the smallest entry is a dij, objects i

and j are combined (their four-vectors are added) and the list is updated. If the smallest entry is a diB, this object is considered

a complete ‘‘jet’’ and is removed from the list.

Momentum resolution as a function of centrality. Default reconstruction and new reconstruction parameters

J/PSI-> mm mass spectrum for the tracks with TRT extensions: 96.5% of all the events.

For these events mass resolution is by 10% better than for standard reconstruction.

New reconstruction parameters do not compromise track reconstruction but

allow to get complete TRT information on the particle track at any occupancy.

Combined performancePhoton efficiency study based of FSR selection

in Z decay processes (MEPhI)

The main idea is to obtain a photon sample with maximum purity with the method decoupled from the standard

analysis methods. 3 body mass spectrum with constrains on the

mass of two leptons (Data and MC) Purity=Signal/(Signal+Background)

Photon Et [GeV]

Developed approach allows to obtain a sample of probe photons with a purity of about 97% for studies of the ATLAS photon response.

Combined performanceElectron reconstruction study (PNPI)

• Currently no special treatment of electrons within the tracking domain– All tracks are fitted using the pion particle hypothesis– No real attempt to correct for material effects therefore

• Modified Electron Reconstruction in e/γ – All tracks assigned to electrons are refitted with brem corrections– Gaussian Sum Filter for initial tests– Primary vertex information is used to create new TrackParticles

Tight electron Gain in efficiency ~3% in low pT and high

E/p distributions closer to 1 and with reduced tails

• PNPI group continue to participate into the searching for high mass gauge and excited boson (Z’ and Z*) decaying into electron-positron pair.

• Latest published results : exclusion of the SSM Z’ up to 1.70 TeV in the electron channel and up to 1.83 TeV in combination with muon channel. These results are accepted by Phys.Rev.Lett. Now results are updated up to ~3 fb-1.

• Goal for this year is to publish result with all available statistics (~5 fb-1) and establish confidence limit on Z’ and Z*.

The 95% C.L. exclusion limit for the SSM Z′ and several E6 Z ′ model are shown.

• PNPI group participates in the work of Exotics Lepton+MET group (W/W*e decay channel) : • Running full analysis

• Providing cut flows and histograms • QCD data-driven estimation• Studies of systematics

• Limits for 95% CL were established for W’: 2.08 and 2.15 TeV for the electron channel and for the combination respectively.

• Publications: ·Note ATL-COM-PHYS-2011-471 for 205 pb-1 was published for PLHC;• Note ATL-COM-PHYS-2011-777 for 1 fb-1 was published for EPS;• Paper “Search for a heavy gauge boson decaying to a charged lepton and a neutrino
