DESCRIPTION:Monojet final states made up of a single high-pt jet accompani
 ed by no other observable object to balance its momentum are an important 
 BSM search channel at the LHC. Dominant SM background processes for monoje
 ts are Z/W+jet production\, where the Z decays invisibly to neutrinos or t
 he W decays to a a lepton and a neutrino and the lepton is not reconstruct
 ed.\n\nWe will discuss the CMS and ATLAS monojet analyses and in particula
 r point out differences in the selection cuts or background estimation pro
 cedures. We will then move on to interpretations of the monojet measuremen
 ts\, focussing in particular on WIMP interpretations in an effective field
  theory approach.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=184
