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 The contribution from opposite spin super-partners would cancel the
divergence resolving the hierarchy problem

SUSY Results from CMS+ATLAS
Many new results for ICHEP from CMS and ATLAS >=10 public notes or papers from both CMS and ATLAS ~15 talks on LHC SUSY-related searches in the parallel sessions
Not really possible to cover all these wonderful new results. For more details, visit CMS & ATLAS pages: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMSPublic/PhysicsResultsSUS https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/AtlasPublic/SupersymmetryPublicResults
or ICHEP SUSY session indico: https://indico.cern.ch/sessionDisplay.py?sessionId=65&confId=181298#20120705
In this talk, I will cover highlights from many results shown at ICHEP 2012, and let’s discuss where we are and where we are heading to.
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 3rd generation sparticles
More “targeted” searches also started to be very vigorously pursued 3rd generation sparticles, gaugino production, etc Difficult phase space (compressed spectra) and more SUSY scenarios

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

MET with Pileups
Missing ET can be sensitive to pileup (additional pp) interactions Average pileup ~10 in 2011. Doubled in 2012. Both CMS and ATLAS have good modeling of pileup in simulation and
also reducing pileup effects

Inclusive Searches
July 17, 2012 SUSY Experimental Results 9
More signal rate/more BG Smaller rate/more BG control
Both CMS & ATLAS have performed inclusive searches in various channels Inclusive searches cut on hadronic activities (HT, jet multiplicity) and MET-
like 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 3rd gen squark production
Adding photons, taus allow to explore even more SUSY scenarios

CMSSM / mSUGRA
Inclusive SUSY results have been conventionally shown in the context of “constrained” MSSM / mSUGRA
CMSSM has only 5 parameters: universal scalar and gauginomasses, m0, m1/2, A0, 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”

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
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

Direct Stop Search
From the hierarchy problem point of view, the scalar top should not be too heavy in order to cancel a large loop contribution from SM top. Strong reason to search for scalar top (stop) in dedicated searches!
The search strategy varies depending on its mass Heavy stop [>m(top)]
Signal:
Leptonic or hadronic top decays with extra MET
Light stop [<m(top)]:Signal: Top like decays via chargino.
Low pT leptons, and subsystem mass below 2m(top)

particles: γ, e, μ, charged & neutral hadrons, pileup, and converted photons & nuclear interactions
Use a combination of all CMS subdetectors to get the best estimates of energy, direction, particle ID1. Associate hits within each
detector2. Link across detectors3. Particle ID and separation

MET with Pileups
Missing ET can be sensitive to pileup (additional pp) interactions Average pileup ~10 in 2011. Doubled in 2012. Both CMS and ATLAS have good modeling of pileup in simulation and
also reducing pileup effects

CMSSM / mSUGRA
Inclusive SUSY results have been conventionally shown in the context of “constrained” MSSM / mSUGRA
CMSSM has only 5 parameters: Universal scalar mass m0
Universal gaugino mass m1/2
Universal trilinear coupling A0
Ratio of 2 Higgs doublet VEV tanβ Sign of the Higgisino mixing
parameter sgn(μ)
Very predictive; however, the universality constraints result in significant restrictions on possible SUSY particle mass spectra

For the signal, MR is a measure of the mass of the heavy particle and peaks at the scale of the production Maximum of scalar sum of the pT of the two jets is MD
The maximum value of MET is also MD
Real life: multi-jet events → define two hemispheres and combine jets into two mega-jets (force di-jet topology)
