Solution [Kribs, Poppitz, Weiner]

– start from well-known R parity [proton decay, dark matter,...]

expand to continuous, global symmetry [Hall & Randall]

avoid spontaneous breaking to break SUSY [Affleck, Dine, Seiberg, Nelson & Seiberg]

– forbidden soft-breaking terms φ3, φ∗φ2, λλallowed soft-breaking terms φ2, φ∗φ, λψ

– no Majorana masses, no A, µ, δLR terms [Majorana neutrino okay]

– gluino Dirac mass via additional state [chiral superfield with sgluon]

⇒ squark mixing hardly constrained

Boosted W bosons

Why fat jets?

1. decay products too collinear to resolve

2. automatic reduction of signal combinatorics

3. improved resonance mass reconstruction

Boosted particles at LHC [talk Erich Varnes]

1994 boosted W → 2 jets from heavy Higgs [Seymour]

1994 boosted t → 3 jets [Seymour]

2002 boosted W → 2 jets from strongly interacting WW [Butterworth, Cox, Forshaw]

2006 boosted t → 3 jets from heavy resonances [Agashe, Belyaev, Krupovnickas, Perez, Virzi]

2007 boosted χ01 → 3 jets in R parity violating SUSY [Butterworth, Ellis, Raklev]

2008 boosted H → bb [Butterworth, Davison, Rubin, Salam]

2009 boosted t → 3 jets from top partners [TP, Salam, Spannowsky, Takeuchi]

Reconstructing hadronic tops

– reconstruction of G→ t t and t → tχ

– competitive with semi-leptonic channel? [t t resonance: /ET plus mW ]

– top mass decisive for taggertop 3-momentum add’l requirement [Wang et al; Moortgat-Pick et al; Weiler et al]

– strong dependence on pT > 200, 300 GeV

Outlook

Watching Tevatron and LHC

– new physics only starting around 1 fb−1

– anomalies either unexplainable or unconvincing

– little happening in model space [arXiv:0912.3259, Morrissey, TP, Tait]

⇒ time for helpful phenomenology

– parton shower/matrix element merging [CKKW, MLM, MC@NLO, POWHEG, CKKW@NLO]

– automized higher order calculations [SM & BSM]

– new physics interfaces in event generators [FeynRules]

– effective theories of new physics [useful?]

– personally: boosted heavy particles

⇒ time to test tools on Tevatron/LHC data [HEPTopTagger]
