Contribution

It provides an analysis of the LHC's sensitivity to new physics models using leptonic final states at various luminosities, highlighting early discovery prospects.

Findings

Potential to detect new phenomena with 1/fb of data

High sensitivity to Supersymmetry and Extra Dimensions

Early signs of new physics possible at low luminosity

Abstract

Final states including leptons are most promising to detect early signs of new physics processes when the Large Hadron Collider will start proton-proton collisions at the centre of mass energy of 14\TeV. The reach for Supersymmetry and Extra Dimension models for integrated luminosities ranging from 1 to 10/fb is reported. Preliminary results indicate that already with 1/fb of data new phenomena can be detected.
