Background determination in an inclusive SUSY search using the template fitting package SUSYFit — •Stephan Horner, Jan Erik Sundermann, Sascha Caron, and Gregor Herten — Physikalisches Institut, Universitaet Freiburg

Most inclusive searches for supersymmetry share common Standard Model background sources. Monte Carlo-based estimates for this processes will generally deviate from the true backgrounds due to systematic effects. A new software tool, SUSYFit, can be used to reweight thoses estimates simultaneously by adjusting appropriate templates to data in control regions.
