Revealing the jet substructure in a compressed spectrum

Abstract

The physics beyond the Standard Model with parameters of the compressed spectrum is well motivated both in the theory side and with phenomenological reasons, especially related to dark matter phenomenology. In this letter, we propose a method to tag soft final state particles from a decaying process of a new particle in this parameter space. By taking a supersymmetric gluino search as an example, we demonstrate how the Large Hadron Collider experimental collaborations can improve sensitivity in these nontrivial search regions. © 2016 American Physical Society
