Description

Several extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of massive long-lived particles, some of these postulate the existence of a hidden sector of particles. We report on searches for weakly-interacting long-lived particles decaying to collimated lepton-jets far away from the interaction point, and for production of multi-charged particles. The talk presents the final results of analyses using data recorded in 2011 at sqrt(s)=7 TeV centre-of-mass energy by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC.
