Abstract
A search is performed for an excess of events, over the standard model expectations, with a photon, a lepton, and large missing transverse energy in pp collisions root s = 7TeV. Such events are expected in many new physics models, in particular a theory that is broken via a gauge-mediated mechanism, when the lightest and neutral gauginos are mass degenerate. The data sample used in this search to an integrated luminosity of 35 pb(-1) collected with the CMS detector at the No evidence of such an excess above the standard model backgrounds, dominated by production, is found. The results are presented as 95 confidence level upper limits on the cross section for a benchmark gauge-mediated scenario, and are then converted into exclusion limits on the squark, gluino, and wino masses.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
