Dear all,
I am very happy to tell you that I will be presenting my master thesis on Thursday June 20! I have searched for long-lived neutralinos and, unfortunately, not found any. Nevertheless, I would very much appreciate your presence during the presentation at 15:00 in H331 at Nikhef.
Cheers, Suzanne
*A Search for Long-Lived Neutralinos at LHCb:*
Supersymmetric (SUSY) extensions of the Standard Model (SM) predict the existence of neutral fermions called neutralinos. A search is performed for neutralinos in the scenario of an R-parity violating model, in which supersymmetry is broken through gravitational interactions (BRpV-mSUGRA). The LSP is the neutralino and has a 71.2 ps lifetime, decaying into SM particles. We present the search for long-lived neutralinos using the 2011 data set of the LHCb detector at CERN in pp collisions at \sqrt{s}=7 TeV, with an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb^{-1}. We look for a signature with a displaced vertex with two jets and a muon. By performing a cut-based analysis, an upper limit is set on 2 \times \sigma \times BR < 3.3 pb at 95% confidence level, with a relative systematic uncertainty of 8.3%. This corresponds to approximately 7 times the predicted SUSY cross section.
Hi Suzanne,
Good Luck! Is there any plan to broadcast the presentation on Vidyo for those at CERN?
Thanks,

Dear all,
Suzanne does not object against a Vidyo broadcast. We can use the same Nikhef Bfys Meeting (Vidyo room) that I booked for Friday 21 June. Please, join from the LHCb homepage -> Meetings of the week -> Friday 10h The PIN is 1328
Best regards. Tjeerd
