Introduction Standard Model
Are We Finished?
What is Dark Matter?Cosmology =⇒0.101 < ΩDMh2 < 0.123Dark Matter (DM) has to interactonly by weak forceOnly candidate in the SM: Neutrinos=⇒ too light (Hot Dark Matter)Missing candidate for Cold DarkMatter
Where is Gravity?
Higgs bare-mass gets hugecorrections!
Unification of gauge couplings?

Introduction Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Proton decay: introduce R-Parity R = (−1)3(B−L)+2s
=⇒ Lightest SUSY particle (LSP) is Dark Matter candidate
Potential extension of SUSY leads to Supergravity
Reduces quadratic Higgs-mass corrections to logarithmic dependence
Can lead to unified couplings at GUT scale
Sparticles not found =⇒ broken symmetry

Introduction Supersymmetry
SUSY Breaking and Masses
“Soft” SUSY breaking: introduction of new terms in the Lagrangian =⇒SUSY particles heavier than their SM partners
In addition, superpartner of left- and right-handed SM particles τL, τR mix tomass eigenstates τ1, τ2
Mass mixing matrix Mτ for taus:
Mτ =
(mτL mτ (Aτ − µ tanβ)
mτ (Aτ − µ tanβ) mτR
)Splitting depends on mass of the SM particle =⇒ strongest for 3rd generation
τ1 can become next-to-lightest sparticle (NLSP)
Many SUSY breaking scenarios: concentrating on the cMSSM with 5 freeparameters
m0,m1/2, tanβ,A0, sign(µ)
Still many different signal topologies possible!

Introduction Taus as a Signal
Motivating SUSY Searches with Taus
Combine cMSSM with measurements:
No em-charged LSP
Direct searches (LEP)
Rare B-decays, e.g.
Br(b→ sγ)
Cosmology: relic density imposes
constraints on LSP σan
Stau-LSP co-annihilation region is one ofthe favoured regions!

Introduction Taus as a Signal
Stau-LSP Co-annihilation Region at Colliders
At LHC, production of colored sparticles
These decay via cascade to the LSP=⇒ Predominant presence of the next-to-lightest particle (= τ1) in the decay=⇒ Enhanced tau production!
Small mass difference between LSP and τ1 can lead to taus with lowmomentum
Jets are produced: hadronic activity
Decay via a stau: tau production
LSP undetectable: missing transverse momentum

Summary and Outlook
A search for Supersymmetry with jets, missing transverse momentum, and asingle tau has been performed
Within the LSP-stau co-annihilation region, the single-tau search iscompetitve with light-lepton analyses
In 2012, only a combination of different analyses might discover SUSY =⇒contribution from tau searches highly desirable
Ideas for improvements in 2012:
Use tau embedding instead of template methodAdd different search regions and look beyond cMSSMTry a shape analysisCombine with di-tau or tau-light-lepton searches

Higgs! Is it realized at 125 GeV? Is it SM-like? What are its properties?What is the impact on new-physics models? Is there only one higgs, or arethere more?
Susy! LHC already provided impressive limits, but SUSY is still doing fine
LHC is mainly setting limits on gluinos and first- and second-generationsquarks, but for higgs-mass correction, only third-generation sparticles areneeded=⇒ Much weaker limits on third-generation sparticles

Summary and Outlook
cMSSM Fitted
Fit includes: rare B decays, (g − 2), EWK precision measurements, relicdensity, direct and indirect DM searches, LEP limits, LHC limits
Tension: g − 2 prefers low masses of uncolored sparticles, direct limits highmasses of colored sparticles: coupled in the cMSSM
High Higgs mass m = 126 GeV difficult to achieve in cMSSM
