Extensive air showers' arrival direction distribution by the TSU array under GELATICA experiment

The distribution of the arrival zenith angle of the Extensive Air Showers (EAS) with a wide range of a total number of charged particles is studied using the experimental data obtained using the EAS 4-detector array 'TSU' in Tbilisi. The station is a part of the GELATICA net in Georgia (GEorgian Large-area Angle and TIme Coincidence Array), which is devoted to the study of possible correlations in the arrival times and directions of separate EAS events over large distances. It is shown that the distribution function with the conventional exponential dependence of showers' flux on absorbing air thickness provides a good approximation for the arrival direction distribution. The dependence of the EAS absorption path estimation on the angular trimming boundary of data set is studied; the necessity of strict verification of the used value of data trimming boundary is stated.

Discovery potential for supersymmetry in CMS

This work summarizes and puts in an overall perspective studies done within CMS concerning the discovery potential for squarks and gluinos, sleptons, charginos and neutralinos, SUSY dark matter, lightest Higgs, sparticle mass determination methods and the detector design optimisation in view of SUSY searches. It represents the status of our understanding of these subjects as of Summer 1997. As a benchmark model we used the minimal supergravity-inspired super- symmetric standard model (mSUGRA) with a stable LSP. Discovery of SUSY at the LHC should be relatively straightforward. It may occur through the observation of a large excesses of events in missing E_T + jets, or with one or more isolated leptons. An excess of trilepton events or of isolated dileptons with E_T^miss, exhibiting a characteristic signature in the l^+l^- invariant mass distribution could also be the first manifestation of SUSY production. Squark and gluino production may represent a copious source of Higgs bosons through cascade decays. The lightest SUSY Higgs h->bbbar may be reconstructed with a signal/background ratio of order 1. The lightest supersymmetric particle of SUSY models with conserved R-parity represents a very good candidate for the cosmological dark matter. The region of parameter space where this is true is well-covered by our searches, at least for tan(beta)=2. If supersymmetry exists at electroweak scale it could hardly escape detection in CMS, and the study of supersymmetry will form a central part of our physics program.

Search for the next-to-lightest neutralino

We study the inclusive production of the next-to-lightest neutralino chi2, decaying directly, or via slepton, into two leptons and the lightest neutralino. The dilepton invariant mass spectrum in these decays has a characteristic sharp edge near the kinematical upper limit. We propose to exploit this feature as a search strategy for the chi2, and thereby for SUSY. The possibilities to determine neutralinos and slepton masses are also discussed.
