4 Searching for new physics 29 May 2012Monica D'Onofrio, Non-SUSY Searches, Rencontres des Blois4 Supersymmetry Extra Dimensions  Large, warped, or universal extra dimensions  Might provide:  Dark Matter candidate  Solution to Hierarchy problem  Unification of forces  Searches for new heavy particles, black holes.. Strong elw. symmetry breaking  Modern variants of Technicolor  Might provide:  Dark Matter  Hierarchy problem  Possibly search for composite Higgs, new heavy vector bosons (Z’, W’…), 4 th generation of quarks  Introduce heavy superpartners, scalar particles, light neutral Higgs  More than100 parameters even in MSSM “SUSY” “Exotics”  this talk (talk by S.Somalwar) Standard Model: remarkably successful description of known phenomena, but requires new physics at the TeV scale.

7 Physics objects and BSM searches 29 May 2012Monica D'Onofrio, Non-SUSY Searches, Rencontres des Blois7  Starting from the physics objects above, searches for BSM physics signal have several common aspects in the overall approach:  Define event selection based on above objects, sometimes aimed to enhance a targeted signal  Combine Monte Carlo prediction of signal with Monte Carlo and data-driven standard model BG estimates  SM sources often checked in control regions  If no excess in Signal Region is observed, compute exclusion limits at 95% C.L. Jets  clusters in EM/HAD calorimeters Photons  EM cluster w/o matching track Electrons  same with matching track Muons  track in Tracker and Muon chambers Tau  narrow jets with 1 or 3 tracks Missing ET (MET)  unbalanced pT But also  More complex objects: B-jets: jet identified as originated from B-hadron “Heavy jets” from boosted top
