CMS results of SUSY searches with leptons in the final state — •Martin Niegel — Institut für Experimentelle Kernphysik, KIT, Karlsruhe

Supersymmetry (SUSY) is a favored candidate for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM), since it not only allows for gauge coupling unification with SUSY particles in the TeV range, but it also provides a candidate for the elusive dark matter in the form of the lightest neutralino. At the Large Hadron Collider, the CMS Collaboration searches for the production of SUSY particles in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. Many SUSY scenarios, including the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (CMSSM), predict a substantial amount of SUSY events containing isolated leptons, while Standard Model background events are strongly reduced by requiring isolated leptons in the final state. This presentation gives an overview about recent results of the searches for Supersymmetry with leptons in the final state based on data collected in 2011 with the CMS detector.
