Inclusive searches for squarks and gluinos with the ATLAS detector

TL;DR

This paper summarizes recent ATLAS experimental searches for supersymmetric squarks and gluinos, exploring various decay scenarios and final states, to find evidence of supersymmetry at the weak scale.

Contribution

It provides the first comprehensive overview of inclusive ATLAS searches for squarks and gluinos across multiple decay modes and R-parity scenarios.

Findings

No evidence of supersymmetry observed.

Constraints set on squark and gluino masses.

Results inform future search strategies.

Abstract

Despite the absence of experimental evidence, weak scale supersymmetry remains one of the best motivated and studied Standard Model extensions. This report summarises recent ATLAS results on inclusive searches for supersymmetric squarks and gluinos, including third generation squarks produced in the decay of gluinos. Results are presented for both R-parity conserving and R-parity violating scenarios, with final states containing jets with and without missing transverse momentum, light leptons, taus or photons.
