Multi-channel search for squarks and gluinos in sqrt(s)=7 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector

ATLAS Collaboration

Understand

A search for supersymmetric particles in final states with zero, one, and two leptons, with and without jets identified as originating from b-quarks, in 4.7 fb-1 of sqrt(s)=7 TeV pp collisions produced by the Large Hadron Collider and recorded by the ATLAS detector is presented.

The search uses a set of variables carrying information on the event kinematics transverse and parallel to the beam line that are sensitive to several topologies expected in supersymmetry.
Mutually exclusive final states are defined, allowing a combination of all channels to increase the search sensitivity.
No deviation from the Standard Model expectation is observed.
