Search for physics beyond the standard model in events with tau leptons, jets, and large transverse momentum imbalance in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV
2013
Abstract
A search for physics beyond the standard model is performed with events having one or more hadronically decaying tau leptons, highly energetic jets, and large transverse momentum imbalance. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.98 fb(-1) of proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV collected with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2011.
The number of observed events is consistent with predictions for standard model processes. Lower limits on the mass of the gluino in supersymmetric models are determined.
