  8. mSugra: a working model hep-ph/9311269 • SUSY broken through gravity • Five parameters: • m0:common scalar mass at GUT scale • m1/2:common gaugino mass at GUT scale (i.e. M1(GUT)=M2(GUT)=M3(GUT)= M1/2 ) • A0: common trilinear scalar interaction at the GUT scale (Higgs-sfermionR-sfermionL) • tan: ratio of Higgs vacuum expectation values • Sign(), the higgsino mass parameter (determined by EWSB) • Lightest supersymmetric particle(LSP) is the 01, stable Running masses (GeV/c2) GUT scale EW scale log10(Q) (GeV) Tevatron Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  18. Leptons to discover SUSY:The SM Calibration Samples  Low pT leptons High pT leptons • Lepton ID efficiencies • Trigger efficiencies • Calorimeter Calibration • Lepton E and P Scale • Luminosity Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  19. Analyses Overview  - Z* W*  +  + W*  No third lepton requirement => Higher acceptance Use e/mu only =>Very small backgrounds Sensitive to taus as 3rd lepton => Keeps acceptance at high tan Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  20. Like-Sign Dileptons  - Z* W*  +  + W*  • Sensitive to both chargino-neutralino and squark-gluino production • Ask for 2 high-pt (20,10) isolated leptons of the same charge • Main background : conversions! Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  21. Backgrounds e- e+ e-   e+ e   Backgrounds: how to reduce them? • HEAVY FLAVOUR PRODUCTION • Leptons mainly have low pT • Leptons are not isolated • MET due to neutrinos • DRELL YAN PRODUCTION + additional lepton • Leptons have mainly high pT • Small MET • Low jet activity • DIBOSON (WZ,ZZ) PRODUCTION • Leptons have high pT • Leptons are isolated and separated • MET due to neutrinos irreducible background Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  22. Jets Faking Leptons Electron Fake rate per Jet Inclusive Jet Sample L= 380 pb-1 • Et>20 • Et>50 • Et>70 • Et>100 ~10-4 • Inclusive Jet Triggers: • Et>20 • Et>50 • Et>70 • Et>100 ET (GeV) Inclusive Jet Sample with different trigger thresholds used to extract Fake rates and test Jet Energy Scale Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  23. s Analysis Strategy COUNTING EXPERIMENT • Optimiseselection criteria for best signal/background value; • Definethe signal region and keep it blind • Test agreement observed vs. expected number of events in orthogonal regions (“control regions”) • Look in the signal region and count number of SUSYevents !! • (Or set limit on the model) Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  24. The Basic Selection • Two leptons preselection • 1st lepton: 20(15,5), 2nd 10(8,5) GeV/c • Invariant Mass • reject resonances •    • reject Drell-Yan • Low jet activity • reject ttbar,W+jets,Z+jets • High Missing Transverse Energy • further Drell-Yan rejection Minimal number of cuts to keep analysis simple while rejecting the most overwhelming backgrounds Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  25. Selection criteria: (I) Mass Rejection of J/,  and Z Dielectron events Asking for the third lepton… DiElectron Mass(GeV/c2) • M<76 GeV & M>106 GeV • M> 15 (20,25) GeV • min M< 60 GeV (dielectron+track analysis) DiMuon Mass(GeV/c2) Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  26. (II) ( , ) and Jet Veto Rejection of DY and high jet multiplicity processes Number of Jets Et>20 GeV (e,e) (o) Number of events Sum Et of Jets (GeV) Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  27. (III) MET selection Further reducing DY by asking MET > 15 GeV …Still BLIND ! Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  38. Limit • No SUSY :( • Combined all analyses to obtain a limit on the mass • of the chargino in mSugra-like scenario • with M(e)=M()=M() • slepton masses ~ neutralino masses • Observed limit: • M(1) ~ 127 GeV/c2 • xBR ~ 0.25 pb ~ ~ ~ • Sensitive up to masses • M(1) ~ 140 GeV/c2 • xBR ~ 0.2 pb D0 limit in similar scenario (but more Luminosity): M(1) > 140 GeV/c2 Beyond LEP and Tevatron Run I ! Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  39. Looking at different models… But : the limit we can set depends on the model ! In “standard” mSugra Sensitive to chargino masses of ~ 116 GeV/c2 Not able to exclude this particular region of parameter space with these results … Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool

  40. The differences in the models In Standard mSugra the BR into taus is enhanced smaller acceptance Giulia Manca, University of Liverpool
