  2. Beyond the Standard Model Beyond the Standard Model physics one of the priorities of on-going physics studies (Data Challenges/full-sim + fast-sim). Huge variety of models being studied. In this talk will concentrate on a few topics  mostly recent work. Cannot do justice to even these in 30 minutes. Will highlight models and techniques to be studied for Rome. Plans for physics commissioning studied (SUSY) described earlier this week (Saturday). Many thanks to Georges Azuelos, Samir Ferrag + members of SUSY & Exotics WG’s. 2

  3. Supersymmetry m1/2 (GeV) • SUSY particularly well-motivated solution to gauge hierarchy problem, unification of couplings etc. • Also often provides natural solution to Dark Matter problem of astrophysics/cosmology. • Much work carried out historically by ATLAS (summarised in TDR). • Work continuing to ensure ready to test new ideas in 2007. Universe Over-Closed m0 (GeV) 3

  4. SUSY Signatures p p ~ c01 ~ ~ ~ q ~ c02 l g q q l l • Q: What do we expect SUSY events @ LHC to look like? • A: Look at typical decay chain: • Strongly interacting sparticles (squarks, gluinos) dominate production. • Heavier than sleptons, gauginos etc. g cascade decays to LSP. • Long decay chains and large mass differences between SUSY states • Many high pT objects observed (leptons, jets, b-jets). • If R-Parity conserved LSP (lightest neutralino in mSUGRA) stable and sparticles pair produced. • Large ETmiss signature (c.f. Wgln). • Closest equivalent SMsignature tgWb. 4

  5. Dilepton Edge Measurements ~ ~ c01 c02 ~ l l l • When kinematically accessible c02 canundergo sequential two-body decay to c01 via a right-slepton (e.g. LHC Point 5). • Results in sharp OS SF dilepton invariant mass edge sensitive to combination of masses of sparticles. • Can perform SM & SUSY background subtraction using OF distribution e+e- + m+m- - e+m- - m+e- • Position of edge measured with precision ~ 0.5% (30 fb-1). ~ ~ DC1 e+e- + m+m- - e+m- - m+e- e+e- + m+m- 5 fb-1 FULL SIM Point 5 ATLAS ATLAS 30 fb-1 atlfast Modified Point 5 (tan(b) = 6) Physics TDR 5

Sbottom/Gluino Mass p p ~ c01 ~ ~ ~ ~ b c02 g lR b b l l Gjelsten et al., ATL-PHYS-2004-007 ~ ~ m(g)-0.99m(c01) = (500.0 ± 6.4) GeV 300 fb-1 ATLAS • Following measurement of squark, slepton and neutralino masses move up decay chain and study alternative chains. • One possibility: require b-tagged jet in addition to dileptons. • Give sensitivity to sbottom mass (actually two peaks) and gluino mass. • Problem with large error on input c01 mass remains g reconstruct difference of gluino and sbottom masses. • Allows separation of b1 and b2 with 300 fb-1. SPS1a ~ ~ ~ m(g)-m(b1) = (103.3 ± 1.8) GeV ATLAS ~ ~ ~ ~ m(g)-m(b2) = (70.6 ± 2.6) GeV 300 fb-1 SPS1a 7

  8. RH Squark Mass ~ ~ c01 qR q Gjelsten et al., ATL-PHYS-2004-007 ~ ~ ~ • Right handed squarks difficult as rarely decay via ‘standard’ c02 chain • Typically BR (qRgc01q) > 99%. • Instead search for events with 2 hard jets and lots of ETmiss. • Reconstruct mass using ‘stransverse mass’ (Allanach et al.): mT22 = min [max{mT2(pTj(1),qTc(1);mc),mT2(pTj(2),qTc(2);mc)}] • Needs c01 mass measurement as input. • Also works for sleptons. ~ qTc(1)+qTc(2)=ETmiss ATLAS ATLAS 30 fb-1 100 fb-1 30 fb-1 Right squark SPS1a ATLAS SPS1a SPS1a Right squark Left slepton Precision ~ 3% 8

  9. Heavy Gaugino Measurements Polesello, SN-ATLAS-2004-041 ATLAS • Also possible to identify dilepton edges from decays of heavy gauginos. • Requires high stats. • Crucial input to reconstruction of MSSM neutralino mass matrix (independent of SUSY breaking scenario).

  12. SUSY Dark Matter Rome Polesello et al., ATL-PHYS-2004-008 • Can use parameter measurements for many purposes, e.g. estimate LSP Dark Matter properties (e.g. for 300 fb-1, SPS1a) • Wch2 = 0.1921  0.0053 • log10(scp/pb) = -8.17  0.04 Baer et al. hep-ph/0305191 LHC Point 5: >5s error (300 fb-1) SPS1a: >5s error (300 fb-1) scp=10-11 pb Micromegas 1.1 (Belanger et al.) + ISASUGRA 7.69 DarkSUSY 3.14.02 (Gondolo et al.) + ISASUGRA 7.69 scp=10-10 pb Wch2 scp scp=10-9 pb 300 fb-1 300 fb-1 No REWSB LEP 2 ATLAS ATLAS 12

  14. Coannihilation Signatures Comune, ATL-COM-PHYS-2004-052 DC2 • Small slepton-neutralino mass difference gives soft leptons • Low electron/muon/tau energy thresholds crucial. • Study point chosen within region: • m0=70 GeV; m1/2=350 GeV; A0=0; tanß=10 ; μ>0; • Same model used for DC2 study. • Decays of c02 to both lL and lR kinematically allowed. • Double dilepton invariant mass edge structure; • Edges expected at 57 / 101 GeV • Stau channels enhanced (tanb) • Soft tau signatures; • Edge expected at 79 GeV; • Less clear due to poor tau visible energy resolution.

  17. Little Higgs Models DC2 Rome • Solves hierarchy problem by cancelling loop corrections (top, W/Z, Higgs loops) to the Higgs mass with new states. • New states derived from extended gauge group rather than new continuous symmetry (c.f. SUSY). • ‘Littlest Higgs’ model contains ‘not too little, not too much, but just enough’ extra gauge symmetry : • Electroweak singlet T quark (top loop) – mixes with top; • New gauge bosons WH, AH, ZH (W/Z loops); • New SU(2)L triplet scalars, including neutral, singly charged, doubly charged f (Higgs loops). • Requirement that these states protect Higgs from large corrections limits their masses: • T quark ~ 1 TeV; • WH, AH, ZH ~ 1 TeV; • f0, f+/-, f+/-+/- ~ 10 TeV. t 17

  18. Littlest Higgs Model Azuelos et al., SN-ATLAS-2004-038 • Searches for/measurements of new particles studied. • For T quark single production assumed. • Yukawa couplings governed by 3 parameters (mt, mT, l1/l2) – top mass eigenstate is mixture of t and T: • Decays: DC2 Rome 18

  29. Inclusive Searches • Use 'golden' Jets + n leptons + ETmiss discovery channel. • Map statistical discovery reach in mSUGRA m0-m1/2 parameter space. • Sensitivity only weakly dependent on A0, tan(b) and sign(m). • Syst.+ stat. reach harder to assess: focus of current & future work. 5s 5s ATLAS ATLAS 29

  30. SUSY Mass Scale Jets + ETmiss + 0 leptons ATLAS • First measured SUSY parameter likely to be mass scale: • Defined as weighted mean of masses of initial sparticles. • Calculate distribution of 'effective mass' variable defined as scalar sum of masses of all jets (or four hardest) and ETmiss: Meff=S|pTi| + ETmiss. • Distribution peaked at ~ twice SUSY mass scale for signal events. • Pseudo 'model-independent' measurement. • Typical measurement error (syst+stat) ~10% for mSUGRA models for 10 fb-1. 10 fb-1 10 fb-1 ATLAS 30

  31. Exclusive Studies p p ~ c01 ~ ~ ~ ~ q c02 g lR q q l l • With more data will attempt to measure weak scale SUSY parameters (masses etc.) using exclusive channels. • Different philosophy to TeV Run II (better S/B, longer decay chains) g aim to use model-independent measures. • Two neutral LSPs escape from each event • Impossible to measure mass of each sparticle using one channel alone • Use kinematic end-points to measure combinations of masses. • Old technique used many times before (n mass from b decay spectrum, W (transverse) mass in Wgln). • Difference here is we don't know mass of neutral final state particles. 31

  32. Mass Relation Method Nojiri et al., ATL-PHYS-2003-039 • Hot off the press: new idea for reconstructing SUSY masses! • ‘Impossible to measure mass of each sparticle using one channel alone’ (Page 8). • Should have added caveat: Only if done event-by-event! • Remove ambiguities by combining different events analytically g ‘mass relation method’ (Nojiri et al.). • Also allows all events to be used, not just those passing hard cuts (useful if background small, buts stats limited – e.g. high scale SUSY).

Chargino Mass Measurement ~ Nojiri et al., ATL-PHYS-2003-040 c+1 q ~ ~ q c01 ~ g p ~ W ~ c01 ~ c02 p q lR ~ q q g ~ q q q l l • Mass of lightest chargino very difficult to measure as does not participate in standard dilepton SUSY decay chain. • Decay process via n+slepton gives too many extra degrees of freedom - concentrate instead on decay c+1g W c01. • Require dilepton c02 decay chain on other ‘leg’ of event and use kinematics to calculate chargino mass analytically. • Using sideband subtraction technique obtain clear peak at true chargino mass (218 GeV). • ~ 3 s significance for 100 fb-1. PRELIMINARY ~ ~ Modified LHCC Point 5: m0=100 GeV; m1/2=300 GeV; A0=300 GeV; tanß=6 ; μ>0 ~ 100 fb-1 33

  34. Coannihilation Models p p ~ c01 ~ ~ ~ ~ q c02 g lR q q l l • Small slepton-neutralino mass difference gives soft leptons from decay • Low electron/muon/tau energy thresholds crucial. • At high tan(b) stau decay channel dominates. • Need to be able to ID soft taus (good jet rejection). • Study started within ATLAS examining signatures of these models. • Study point chosen within coannihilation region : • m0=70 GeV; m1/2=350 GeV; A0=0; tanß=10 ; μ>0 • Same model to be used for DC2 SUSY study. 34

  35. Physics Commissioning (See also talk during Commissioning Workshop earlier in week) • Preparations needed to ensure efficient/reliable searches for/measurements of SUSY particles in timely manner: • Initial calibrations (energy scales, resolutions, efficiencies etc.); • Minimisation of poorly estimated SM backgrounds; • Estimation of remaining SM backgrounds; • Development of useful tools. • Many issues will be common with other WG, esp: • Standard Model (W (gln) + n jet, Z(gll) + n jet) from Z(gl+l-) + n jet); • Top (full reconstruction of semi-leptonic ttbar events); • Higgs (Estimation of high ETmiss backgrounds) • Jet/ETmiss (Estimation of fake ETmiss QCD backgrounds, jet energy scale etc.); • Combined Performance groups (calibration of energy scales, resolutions and efficiencies). • Should work together to develop common tools and analysis strategies wherever possible … 35
