A. and Vos, M.", title="Search for supersymmetry in events containing a same-flavour opposite-sign dilepton pair, jets, and large missing transverse momentum in root s=8 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector", journal="European Physical Journal C", year="2015", publisher="Springer", volume="75", number="7", pages="318--40pp", abstract="Two searches for supersymmetric particles in final states containing a same-flavour opposite-sign lepton pair, jets and large missing transverse momentum are presented. The proton-proton collision data used in these searches were collected at a centre-of-mass energy root s = 8TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb(-1). Two leptonic production mechanisms are considered: decays of squarks and gluinos with Z bosons in the final state, resulting in a peak in the dilepton invariant mass distribution around the Z-boson mass; and decays of neutralinos (e.g.. (chi) over tilde (0)(2) -> l(+)l(-) (chi) over tilde (0)(1)), resulting in a kinematic endpoint in the dilepton invariant mass distribution. For the former, an excess of events above the expected Standard Model background is observed, with a significance of three standard deviations. In the latter case, the data are well-described by the expected Standard Model background. The results from each channel are interpreted in the context of several supersymmetric models involving the production of squarks and gluinos.", optnote="WOS:000357686000001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=2303), last updated on Wed, 06 Jan 2016 18:38:39 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-015-3518-2", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1503.03290", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-015-3518-2", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1503.03290", language="English" }
