Search for Supersymmetry in pp Collisions at 7 TeV in Events with Jets and Missing Transverse Energy

CMS Collaboration

Understand

A search for supersymmetry with R-parity conservation in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is presented.

The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35 inverse picobarns collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC.
The search is performed in events with jets and significant missing transverse energy, characteristic of the decays of heavy, pair-produced squarks and gluinos.
The primary background, from standard model multijet production, is reduced by several orders of magnitude to a negligible level by the application of a set of robust kinematic requirements.
