Highlights from SUSY searches with ATLAS


Abstract in English

Supersymmetry (SUSY) is one of the most relevant scenarios of new physics searched by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. In this writeup the principal search strategies employed by ATLAS are outlined and the most recent results for analyses targeting SUSY discovery are discussed. A wide range of signatures is covered motivated by various theoretical scenarios and topologies: strong production, third-generation fermions, long-lived particles and R-parity violation, among others. The results are based on up to ~5 fb-1 of data recorded during 2010-2011 at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV centre-of-mass energy by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC.
