Search for supersymmetry with jets, missing transverse momentum and at least one hadronically decaying τ lepton in proton–proton collisions at s=7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Abstract

A search for production of supersymmetric particles in final states containing jets, missing transverse momentum, and at least one hadronically decaying τ lepton is presented. The data were recorded by the ATLAS experiment in s=7TeV proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. No excess above the Standard Model background expectation was observed in 2.05fb-1 of data. The results are interpreted in the context of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking models with Mmess=250TeV, N5=3, μ>0, and Cgrav=1. The production of supersymmetric particles is excluded at 95% C.L. up to a supersymmetry breaking scale Λ=30TeV, independent of tanβ, and up to Λ=43TeV for large tanβ. © 2012.
