## Structure

**SUSY searches at the Tevatron focus  on mSUGRA/MSSM, GMSB and RPV**** **
**Present every Run II result from first 200 pb****-1**** **
**Minor excesses or interesting events which I’ll be keeping my eye on as the dataset doubles, quadruples or goes up an order of magnitude**
**New world’s best limit**
**Hot off the presses result**

## Overview of Results

**CHAMP Searches**
**Jets + Met Searches**
**Multi-lepton Searches**
**Diphoton+Met Searches**

## CHArged Massive Stable Particles

**Final Cut here**

**Observe 7**
**Small excess...Lots more data already taken and being analyzed**

## CHAMPS: Results and Limits

**Excluded by Aleph**

**Lots of theories predict CHAMPS**
**Stop **
**Staus**
**Charginos**
**Sleptons**
**New limits on Stop at 107 GeV which is the new world limit**
**Nice complement to the Run I decay based searches for stop**

## Search for New Physics in Jets+Met

**Search for New Physics in Jets+Met**

**Direct searches for Squarks and Gluinos in jets+met final state**

**Require:**
**At least two large jets **
**Total H****T****>275 GeV**
**Met>175**
**2.67±0.95 expected**
**4 events observed in the data**

**L = 85/pb**

**Background predictions dominated by ****EWK**** not ****QCD**

**Final Cut here**

**Z ******** ******** ****+ 2jets**
**W ******** ******** ****+ jet**

## The interesting event on the tail

**Kinematics:**
**2 big jets: E****T****=289 GeV and 117 GeV **
**2 little jets: E****T****=of 14 GeV and 11 GeV **
**Met=381 GeV**
**Expect 1 event above 300 GeV; ~1⁄4 above 350 GeV**** **
**Background dominated by Z****→********jets**
**Doesn’t particularly look like signal or background**

## Limits on Squarks & Gluinos

**Set limits in mSUGRA scenario **
**New limit at 333 GeV (for a squark mass of 292) extends previous world’s best**

**mSUGRA model with M****0**** = 25 GeV/c****2****, A****0****=0, tan B = 3, ********<0, varying M****1⁄2**

**Excluded by CDF Run I**

**L = 85/pb**

## Search for Sbottom Squarks

**CDF Preliminary**
**L = 156/pb**

**Gluinos decay into Sbottom quarks and produce *****b*****-jets and Met**
**Two separate analyses: **
_**Single-tag + Met:**_** ****	**** ****Back=16.6±3.6   Observe 21 **
_**Double-tag + Met:**_** **
**	****Back=3.4±1.1   **
**  ****Observe 4**
**Backgrounds dominated by Top quark pairs**

**Final Cut here**

## Limits on Sbottoms 

**Limits on Sbottoms **

**CDF Preliminary**
**L = 156/pb**

**CDF Run I**

**Gluino production allows significant extension of the best limits at high mass Sbottom and low mass neutralinos**

******0**** Mass (GeV)   **

**Sbottom Mass (GeV)**

**New limits are not sensitive to when Sbottom mass is close to the LSP mass. **
**LEP sensitivity is still best there**

**Sbottom Mass (GeV)**

**Gluino Mass (GeV)**

**CDF Run I**

**CDF Run II**

## Multi-lepton searches

**Multi-lepton final states have been a staple of SUSY searches for many years**
**Low mass indirect searches in B****S****→******
**High mass resonance searches for RPV Sneutrinos**
**Chargino/Neutralino Pair-production and decay**

## BS→

**B****S****→**********

**L = 171/pb**

**4******** **
**Mass Window**

***Accepted for publication in PRL**

**Indirect search for SUSY via loop diagrams which affect the branching ratio by one to three orders of magnitude.**** **
**Search in 4******** mass window around known world average and optimize using topology cuts**
**1.1****±****0.3 events expected**
**1 Event observed**

## Limits and SUSY Interpretation

**BR****SM****=3.5x10****-9 **
**Previous best limit at 2.0x10****-6**** (CDF Run 1)**
**New Limit: **
**Br(B****S****→********=7.5x10****-7**** ****	****→World’s best**
**Many models to interpret this constraint**
**(Blow up of example from           ****	****A. Balyaev)**

## High Mass Resonance Searches

**People have been looking at ee and ******** for many years for Z’, E6, Higgs, Technicolor etc. (See talk by M. Gold for data)**
**CDF now interprets it’s results in terms of RPV Sneutrino production and decay.**
**First limits for large masses**

**CDF Preliminary**
**L = 200/pb**

## Chargino/Neutralino Pair Production

**Chargino/Neutralino Pair Production**

**Chargino/Neutralino pair production can produce three leptons +Met**
**Since the end of Run I, LEP has significantly improved the limits**
**Three new results in this mode:**
**Same sign muons**
**Two electrons + lepton**
**Electron + Muon + lepton**

**Gold plated signature of mSUGRA for low tanB**

## Like-Sign Muons

**Predict 0.13 ****±**** 0.06**
**Observe 1 interesting event**

**Increase acceptance by only requiring two out of three leptons**
**Reduce background by requiring them to be same-sign**
**P****T1****>11 GeV**
**P****T2****>5 GeV**
**Met>15 GeV **
**M********<80 GeV**

## Electron+Muon+lepton

**Predict 0.5****±****0.2 **
**0 observed**

**Require:**
**Electron>12 GeV**
**Muon>8 GeV**
**Met>15**** **
**Look for a third isolated track: ****e, ******** or ******

## Two-electrons+lepton

**Two-electrons+lepton**

**Two high P****T**** isolated *****e*****’s, a 3****rd**** lepton (high P****T**** isolated track) and Met**

**Met **x **Pt(3****rd**** Track) >250 GeV****2**

**Electron E****T ****= 33 GeV and 26 GeV**
**Track P****T**** = 8.6 GeV **
**Met = 52.1 GeV**
**Background dominated by WW, but is likely W******** where the photon converted**

## Combine results to set limits

**Combine results to set limits**

**All three searches are optimized for the region above the LEP limits**
**Combined result produces the most stringent limits from the Tevatron to date**
**Significant improvement over Run I results, but no extension of the exclusion region from LEP (yet)**

## GMSB Searches in Two Photons+Met

**GMSB Searches in Two Photons+Met**

**In Run I CDF found an ee********+Met candidate event**

## Conclusions

**It’s an exciting time to be at the Tevatron as it is the high energy frontier for the next N years.**
**Preliminary results on the first 200 pb****-1**** are starting to come rapid-fire with first publications already submitted & accepted**
**Many of these results are the world’s most sensitive**
**Results on the next 200 pb****-1**** are in the pipeline**
**The detectors and the Tevatron continue to improve and provide new sensitivity**
**Lots of interesting things to keep our eyes on in the coming year...**
