| Search for supersymmetry in pp collisions at $\sqrt s =$ 13 TeV in the single-lepton final state using the sum of masses of large radius jets | ||
| CMS Collaboration | ||
| December 2015 | ||
| Abstract: Results are reported from a search for supersymmetric particles in pp collisions in the final state with a single, high $p_{\rm T}$ lepton; multiple jets, including at least one b-tagged jet; and large missing transverse momentum. The data sample corresponds to 2.1 fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the CMS experiment at $\sqrt s=$ 13 TeV. The search focuses on processes leading to high jet multiplicities, such as ${\rm gg}\to{\rm \tilde g\tilde g}$ with ${\rm \tilde g}\to{\rm t}{\rm \bar t}\,{\tilde\chi^0_1}$. The quantity $M_J$, defined as the sum of the masses of the large-radius jets in the event, is used in conjunction with other kinematic variables to provide discrimination between signal and backgrounds and as a key part of the background estimation method. The observed event yields in the signal regions in data are consistent with those expected for standard model backgrounds, which are estimated from control regions. Exclusion limits are obtained for the simplified model T1tttt, which corresponds to gluino pair production with decays into top quarks plus neutralinos. Gluinos with mass below 1575 GeV are excluded at 95\% CL for T1tttt scenarios with low $\tilde\chi_1^0$ mass. | ||

Figure 2-a:
Distributions of $ {M_J} $ from simulated event samples with little ISR (a), and significant ISR (b). The amount of ISR is selected using the $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} $ of the $ \mathrm{ t \bar{t} } $ or gluino-gluino system. The distributions are shown for $ \mathrm{ t \bar{t} } $ single- and dilepton events and for a T1tttt SUSY model with a 1500 GeV gluino and a 100 GeV neutralino. When the ISR contribution is small, the $ {M_J} $ distribution for $ \mathrm{ t \bar{t} } $ events has a cutoff around $ 2m_{\rm t}$ (blue curves in the left-hand plot). If the ISR contribution is substantial, this tail is greatly extended (blue curves in the right-hand plot. The signal events have a large tail in the $ {M_J} $ distribution regardless of the amount of ISR. For each distribution, the mean value ($\mu $) is given in the legend. |

Figure 5:
Binning used in the signal (R4) and control regions (R1, R2, and R3) of the analysis. The low $ {M_J} $ region R1 and R3 are divided only into low and high MET regions. Because of the correlation with $ {m_{\mathrm {T}}} $, binning in MET is necessary in the low ${M_J} $ sideband to obtain the correct $ {m_{\mathrm {T}}} $ shape. At high $ {M_J} $, we partition regions R2 and R4 into 10 bins each using $ {N_{\text {jets}}} $, $ {N_{\text {b}}} $, and $ {E_{\mathrm {T}}^{\text {miss}}} $. |
