Search for Resonant Production of Second Generation Sleptons in RPV Supersymmetry at √s = 8 TeV with the CMS Experiment — •Markus Radziej, Matthias Endres, Andreas Güth, Thomas Hebbeker, Arnd Meyer, Lars Sonnenschein, Daniel Teyssier, Sebastian Thüer, and Martin Weber — III.

The topic of this talk is the search for resonant production of second generation sleptons, which decay into a final state of two muons and two jets. Such processes can only occur in supersymmetric models where R-parity is violated. While the latter is often assumed to be conserved to prevent e.g. proton decay, other local gauge symmetries such as baryon triality can also ensure a stable proton.

While many Standard Model processes can lead to a dimuon final state, they usually do not offer the possibility for the leptons to have the same charge. Requiring this allows for a tremendous improvement of the signal to background ratio. The results shown are based on the 2012 data taking period of the CMS experiment, which operated at a center-of-mass energy of √s = 8 TeV.
