  1. 4. Search for First Generation Leptoquarks in ATLAS
    Regina Caputo (SUNY Stony Brook)
    30/10/2010, 14:45
    Abstract: Leptoquarks are hypothetical particles that carry both lepton and baryon number and are proposed to exist in a number of extensions to the standard model. This work presents a search for first generation Leptoquarks at the ATLAS detector. The search is for pair production of leptoquarks in which one would decay into a lepton/quark pair, and the other into a neutrino/quark pair...

  2. 5. Search for First-Generation Leptoquarks in CMS
    Dinko Ferencek (University of Maryland)
    30/10/2010, 15:05
    Abstract We present the results of a search for pair production of first-generation scalar leptoquarks (LQ) in the final state arising from LQLQ -> eqeq using 1.1 pb^{-1} of pp collisions at sqrt{s} = 7 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. The number of observed events is in good agreement with the predictions for standard model background processes, and we...

  3. 6. Extra Dimensions Searches in the Diphoton Final State at CMS
    Duong Nguyen (Brown University)
    30/10/2010, 15:25
    Abstract We present the commissioning of photon reconstruction and identification using 7 TeV collision data at CMS. The photon observables are measured and compared to Monte Carlo simulation. Two analyses searching for extra dimensions in the diphoton final state, large extra dimensions and wrapped extra dimensions searches, are also discussed.

  4. 7. From W/Z to Higgs: ATLAS Higgs Sensitivity Prospects for 2010/2011
    Pai-hsien Jennifer Hsu (Yale University)
    30/10/2010, 15:45
    Abstract: In this talk we show the projections for the Higgs boson search with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, assuming an integrated luminosity of 1 fb-1 which is expected to be reached by the end of 2011. Particular emphasis is given to ongoing studies of the Standard Model W and Z boson production, in view of understanding some of the most important background processes in search for the...

  5. 8. Supersymmetry Searches in ATLAS
    Rishiraj Pravahan (University of Texas at Arlington)
    30/10/2010, 16:05
    Abstract: We describe the potential for discovering Supersymmetry (SUSY) using the ATLAS detector in the multi-jet and multi-lepton channels with associated missing transverse energy. A study of ATLAS sensitivity based on LHC data for typical signatures of R-Parity conserved SUSY models is presented. The possibilities of using kinematic variables in place of reconstructed missing transverse...

  6. 9. Setting Limits on New Phenomena in Z+Gamma Final States at CMS
    Irakli Svintradze (Kansas State University)
    30/10/2010, 16:25
    Abstract We present a study of setting limits on anomalous trilinear gauge couplings in Z + gamma events containing a vector boson and a photon.
