The most sensitive channels to Supersymmetry in proton-proton collisions are composed of jets and missing transverse momentum finalstates. The most recent results on these channels will be given based on data recordedin 2011.

A search for new physics is presented based on an event signature of at least three jets accompanied by large missing transverse momentum using a data sample of 36 pb^-1 of proton–proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV acquired by the CMS detector at the LHC in 2010. There are three main background components. One is irreducible, from Z+jets events, with the Z decaying to neutrinos. A second...

Third family (t-b-tau) Yukawa unification is predicted in a class of grand unified models based on SO(10) as well as its subgroup H = SU(4) x SU(2) x S (2). This can lead to some surprising conclusions for the low energy MSSM phenomenology. For instance, in SO(10) the gluino turns out to be the lightest colored sparticle, while the gauge symmetry H can yield a gluino NLSP scenario. A search...

We study the possibility of observing at the LHC Higgs bosons produced from supersymmetric decay chains in the regions of parameter space consistent with a neutralino dark matter relic density. We analyze the dependence on the non- standard Higgs boson, slepton and squark masses, as well as on the condition of gaugino mass unification. In general, we conclude that, provided sleptons are...

We present results of searches for Supersymmetry in signatures involving one or more leptons. These searches are performed with data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in pp-collisions at a center of mass energy of 7 TeV. Various data driven techniques used to measure the Standard Model background are demonstrated. The results are interpreted within the CMSSM as well as more general,...

This talk presents the latest searches for signals of Supersymmetry in the data collected in 2010 by the ATLAS experiment in LHC collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The first study looks for a signal in the di-photon plus large missing energy final state while the second is a search, based on the muon spectrometer, for long-lived stable massive particles No excess was observed...
