中文摘要 | A 'wedgebox' plot is a two-dimensional scatter-plot of two invariant mass quantities. Here pp -> e(+) e(-) mu(+) mu(-) + E signature LHC events are analyzed by plotting the di-electron invariant mass versus the di-muon invariant mass. Data sets of such events are obtained across the MSSM input parameter space in realistic event-generator simulations, including cuts designed to remove SM backgrounds. Their study reveals several general features. Firstly, regions in the MSSM input parameter space where a sufficient number of events are expected so as to be able to construct a clear wedgebox plot are delineated. Secondly, the presence of box shapes on a wedgebox plot either indicates the presence of heavy Higgs bosons' decays or restricts the location to a quite small region of low mu and M-2 values, less than or similar to 200 GeV, a region denoted as the 'lower island'. In this region, wedgebox plots can be quite complicated and change in pattern rather quickly as one moves around in the (mu,M-2) plane. Thirdly, direct neutralino pair production from an intermediate Z(0)* may only produce a wedge shape since only chi(similar to 0)(2)chi(similar to 0)(3) decays can contribute significantly. And fourthly, a double-wedge or wedge-protruding-from-a-box pattern on a wedgebox plot, which results from combining a variety of MSSM production processes, yields three distinct observed endpoints, almost always attributable to chi(similar to 0)(2,3,4) -> chi(similar to 0)(1)l(+)l(-) decays, which can be utilized to determine a great deal of information about the neutralino and slepton mass spectra and related MSSM input parameters. Wedge and double-wedge patterns are seen in wedgebox plots in another region of higher mu and M-2 values, denoted as the 'upper island'. Here the pattern is simpler and more stable as one moves across the (mu,M-2) input parameter space. |
