Standard Model Background Studies for SUSY Searches with the CMS Detector at the LHC
Abstract:
The large center of mass energy of the LHC could allow for the production of SUSY particles, which leave characteristic signatures. The main subject of this thesis is the calculation of the discovery reach for SUSY particles in these various topologies with early searches. The most popular simulation programs for hadron collisions have been compared: MadGraph, Alpgen, Sherpa and MC@NLO. The major characteristicsof physics observables are studied with and without CMS detector reconstruction
