Beyond the Standard Model
The Large Hadron Collider with its unprecedented centre-of-mass energy will provide a unique opportunity to search for new physics Beyond the Standard Model. In this talk, I will describe search strategies for Supersymmetry in tri-lepton final states with early data of up to 10 inverse femtobarn. Using Monte Carlo simulations and a full ATLAS detector simulation I investigate the discovery...

Beyond the Standard Model
By including gauge singlets in supersymmetric gauge theories, we have been able to construct and test new types of Seiberg duality which may help in finding dual theories for supersymmetric GUTs.

Beyond the Standard Model
The masses of chargino and neutralino are important SUSY parameters
which can be measured with high precision in ILC. The chargino or
neutralino pair production is one of the benchmarking processes of SiD
detector concept also because the separation of chargino/neutralino
events is only enabled by satisfactory performance of Particle Flow
Algorithm. Here we discuss the chargino/...

Beyond the Standard Model
We present a comprehensive black-hole event generator, BlackMax, which simulates the experimental signatures of microscopic and Planckian black-hole production and evolution at proton-proton, proton-antiproton and electron-positron collisions in the context of brane world models with low-scale quantum gravity. The generator is based on phenomenologically realistic models free of serious...

Beyond the Standard Model
We present results of a new simulation of black hole production and decay at hadron colliders in theories with large extra dimensions and TeV-scale gravity. The main new feature is a full treatment of the spin-down phase of the decay process and the distributions of the associated Hawking radiation. Also included are improved modelling of the loss of angular momentum and energy in the...

Beyond the Standard Model
Variables are chosen and orthogonal cuts are optimised for the preferential selection of inclusive SUSY signal over standard model background. This cuts based analysis is compared with a log likelihood based analysis also selecting SUSY over backgrounds.
