The operation and general performance of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter at sqrt{s} = 7 TeV are described. The first LHC beams have been used to finalize the commissioning of ECAL readout and trigger. The precision of the inter-channel synchronization and calibration has been verified and improved with collision data, exploiting decays of pi0s and eta into two photons, the phi invariance...

Since the restart of the LHC, ATLAS has successfully recorded data at sqrt{s} = 0.9 and 7 TeV. The ATLAS trigger strategy realised a step-wise activation of the three level trigger system, starting with hardware-based first-level (L1) triggers and moving with increasing luminosities to the deployment of the software-based high-level triggers (HLT). We will present L1 and HLT triggers and their...

The first measurement of the production cross-sections for W and Z bosons in proton proton

on its excellent capability for reconstructing both high pT electrons and muons, the

Since the early phase of p-p collisions at LHC, the SSD is fully operational and participating in the charged particle detection and identification carried out by ALICE. The performance of the SSD during the 900 GeV and 7 TeV collision data taking is presented here.

We present a result of search for CP-violating charge asymmetry in B^+ -> J/psi K^+ decays using 772x10^6 B anti-B meson pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e^+ e^− collider.
The result supersedes our previous measurement and represents the most sensitive measurement up to date.

In the Standard Model, lepton-number-violating decays such as $B^+ \to D^- \ell^+ \ell^+$ is strictly forbidden, but they are allowed if there exist Majorana-type neutrinos. In this poster, we report a first search for $B^+ \to D^- \ell^+ \ell^+$ ($\ell = e$ or $\mu$) decays with 772$\times 10^{-6}$ $B \bar{B}$ pairs produced by energy-asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collision at KEKB accelerator and...

The full reconstruction is an important tool for particle physics at the $B$ factories. By fully reconstructing one of the two $B$ mesons coming from the $\Upsilon (4S)$ resonance (tag side), the 4-momentum of the other $B$ meson (signal side) is immediately known and all remaining tracks in the detector can be associated with this other $B$ meson. The full reconstruction is therefore an...

ATLAS is a multipurpose experiment that records the products of the LHC proton‐proton
collisions. In order to reconstruct the trajectories of charged particles, ATLAS is equipped
with an inner tracking system built on silicon planar sensors (pixel and microstrips) plus
drift‐tube based detectors, all embedded in a 2 T solenoidal field.
In order to achieve its scientific goals, the...

Higgs decay to WW leading to a final state of 2 leptons and missing energy constitutes one of the main Higgs search

We looked for the subsequent decay of these particles during time intervals where there were no pp collisions in the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment. In particular, we searched for decays during...

Several different jet reconstruction methods are investigated using an anti-kT clustering algorithm. Studies of the systematic uncertainties in...

With a projected design luminostity of 10^{34} cm^{-2}s^{-1} the LHC will provide about 10^9 proton collisions per second within the CMS detector. Thus, an efficient trigger system to select interesting events is essential. A good knowledge of these trigger efficiencies is inevitable, e.g. for cross section measurements. This study presents data-driven approaches applied to first 7 TeV data to...

The performance of photon reconstruction and identification has been studied at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. Reconstruction and identification variables as well as isolation have been compared between data and Monte Carlo for signal and background. Level 1 Trigger and High Level Trigger efficiencies have been measured.

The neutralino is the lightest supersymmetric particle in many SUSY models. Thus in R parity conserving models it provides a perfect dark matter candidate by being electromagnetically neutral, weakly interacting and stable. Following cosmological models, at the freeze-out time most neutralinos should have been transformed into standard model particles by annihilation. The annihilation cross...

The LHC has started accumulating data at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. We look at the consistency of data samples containing high transverse momentum electrons and muons for their consistency with predicts for production of standard model particles. We look at the expectations for exotic new particles, such as leptoquarks, for this data.
