Search for R-parity violating supersymmetry with the ATLAS detector
نویسنده
چکیده
R-parity violation in supersymmetry gives rise to many unique experimental signatures. We describe searches with the ATLAS detector for supersymmetry with R-parity violating decays. Examples include searches for resonant sneutrino decays to an electron and a muon, and displaced vertices arising from the late decays of heavy objects with a muon in the final state. The most recent results on these channels are presented based on data recorded with the ATLAS detector in 7 TeV pp collisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider in 2010 and 2011.

Search for R-Parity violating Supersymmetry with the DØ Detector
Abstract. Searches for R-parity violating supersymmetry with the DØ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron pp̄-collider are presented. In the case of non-zero LLĒ couplings λi jk & 0.01, multi-lepton final states, and for a small coupling λ122 ≪ 0.01 di-muon final states are studied. The case of non-zero LQD̄ coupling λ ′ 211 leads to final states with two muons and jets. A total integrated luminosity...
متن کاملSearch for R-parity Violating Decays of Supersymmetric Particles at Lep
If supersymmetry (SUSY) is the answer to the hierarchy problem of the Standard Model (SM), there should be a superpartner to each SM particle. We present here a search for pair-produced supersymmetric particles in ee collisions with the OPAL detector, assuming that R-parity can be violated. R-parity violating (RPV) interactions are parametrized with a gauge-invariant superpotential that include...

Search for Squark Production in R-Parity Violating Supersymmetry at HERA This thesis describes a search for squarks in supersymmetric models which allow R-parity violation. Electron-proton and positron-proton collisions taken at a centre of mass energy of 320GeV have been investigated using the H1 detector at HERA. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 64.3 pb−1 for ep collisions a...
متن کاملResonant sneutrino production in Supersymmetry with R-parity violation at the LHC
The resonant production of sneutrinos at the LHC via the R-parity violating couplings λ′ijkLiQjD c k is studied through its three-leptons signature. A detailed particle level study of signal and background is performed using a fast simulation of the ATLAS detector. Through the full reconstruction of the cascade decay, a model-independent and precise measurement of the masses of the involved spa...
متن کاملThe ATLAS Di-boson Excess Could Be an R−parity Violating Di-smuon Excess
We propose a new possible explanation of the ATLAS di-boson excess: that it is due to heavy resonant slepton production, followed by decay into di-smuons. The smuon has a mass not too far from the W and Z masses, and so it is easily confused with W or Z bosons after its subsequent decay into di-jets, through a supersymmetry violating and R−parity violating interaction. Such a scenario is not cu...
