NLO corrections used for ( t t, ZZ, Z b b ) All hadronization done using PYTHIA 6.220 Full CMS detector simulation was used (CMSIM, ORCA)

18
SUSY05, Durham, UK 18 A First Estimate of Systematic Effects To estimate the stability of the results, the effect of varying the cuts and the number of SM and SUSY events was investigated: –Uncertainty in signal acceptance and background variation 30% decrease in no. of SUSY events + 30% increase in no. of SM events –Energy and momentum scale uncertainty shift of all cuts by + or – 20% simultaneously Only one "SUSY discovery" point (#13) goes out of reach Above probably pessimistic scenario –Only one background process survives after all cuts: –Precision to which cross-section is expected to be known for this process (including theoretical systematics) is about 10%
19
SUSY05, Durham, UK 19 Summary Study performed based on the mSUGRA model tanβ=10,20,35, sign(μ)>0, A 0 =0 Full detailed simulation, trigger emulation and reconstruction was used Excess of mSUGRA events over SM processes is statistically significant for many benchmark points for ∫L<<10fb -1 up to 600 GeV in m 1/2 and at least up to 1600 GeV in m 0 Results are optimistic for SUSY discovery

SUSY05, Durham, UK 21 Location in parameter space Variety of SUSY decay chains possible Mix depends on where one is in SUSY parameter space. –e.g. for point 5, 42% of decay chains (PYTHIA) follow the form of the previous diagram. Where m 0 < m 1/2 m(sleptons) < m ( two body decays to lepton final states open up.
