SUSY Searches in Trilepton Final States at the LHC Martin Niegel University of Karlsruhe for the ATLAS & CMS Collaborations
Outline • Trilepton channel studied in ATLAS & CMS with full and fast detector simulations • Benchmark points for detailed analysis • Exclusive Searches with direct Gaugino production:Neutralino-Chargino (golden channel) χ20χ1±→3l + no jets + MET SM equivalent : ZW → 3l +MET • Inclusive Search: any decay originating from SUSY particles that gives 3l+Njets+MET SUSY07 Karlsruhe
Total SUSY cross section fp Motivation • Total SUSY cross sections strong function of m1/2 • Main channels: gluinos production squarks/sleptons production gauginos production • Gaugino production dominant at focus point region (large m0) [pb] Contribution of gauginos 90% ~0.1pb 20% CMS CMS ~100pb SUSY07 Karlsruhe

Different possibilities: All OSSF combinations-> largest significance high Pt pairs. good efficiency to the MC tagged pairs. low Pt pairs difficult – moves Z peak to the signal region DFOS related to the combinatorial bkg., useless here Invariant Mass Reconstruction CMS full simulation CMS SUSY07 Karlsruhe

Outlook • The 5σ trilepton signal from direct neutralino chargino production can be observed for m1/2<200 GeV, m0>1000 GeV in mSUGRA mass plane • The discovery reach is limited by isolation efficiency of leptons and low missing ET for the signal • Observation of trilepton signal from gauginos production is complimentary to gluino (squarks) cascade decays and allows to identify region in mSUGRA parameter space SUSY07 Karlsruhe
