Motivation
• In SUSY we expect lots of:– Jets– Leptons
– ETMiss (R-parity conserving)
• Generic Jets + ETMiss search is sensitive to most
SUSY models
• Low multiplicity jets + ETMiss not really studied
• Most ATLAS SUSY use Njets ≥ 4

R-Parity
R = (-1)2j + 3B + L
• SM particles have R = 1
• SUSY sparticles have R = -1
• Multiplicative
![Page 5: R-parity conserving SUSY studies with jets and E T Miss Alexander Richards, UCL 1](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070306/5515dc61550346dd6f8b4b01/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Analysis Aim
Alexander Richards, UCL4
• Detect production and decay of squarks and gluinos
• Look for and optimise variable cuts that help discriminate SM backgrounds
• Analysis focused mainly on QCD jet background at the moment.

Alexander Richards, UCL15
• same cuts as for QCD jet background
• Unfortunately low statistics

Future Study
• More statistics
• Include additional backgrounds (ttbar etc.)
• Optimise cuts
• Look at 2 jets inclusive
• Trigger study

Summary
• jets + ETMiss looks promising for R-parity
conserving SUSY search
• Low multiplicity ->more statistics->better for early discovery?
