Contribution
It presents the SUSY discovery potential with early LHC data and methods to distinguish SUSY models and interpret signals as dark matter candidates.
Findings
First results from 2010 7 TeV collision data
Methods for parameter determination to differentiate SUSY models
Analysis strategies for interpreting potential SUSY signals as dark matter
Abstract
Besides Standard Model measurements and other Beyond Standard Model studies, the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC will search for Supersymmetry, one of the most attractive explanation for dark matter. The SUSY discovery potential with early data is presented here together with some first results obtained with 2010 collision data at 7 TeV. Emphasis is placed on measurements and parameter determination that can be performed to disentangle the possible SUSY models and SUSY look-alike and the interpretation of a possible positive supersymmetric signal as an explanation of dark matter.
