Search for physics beyond the standard model with photons, missing transverse momentum and hadronic activity — •Maximilian Knut Kiesel, Christian Autermann, and Lutz Feld — 1. Physikalisches Institut B, RWTH Aachen University

A search for physics beyond the standard model in proton-proton collisions with photons in the final state will be presented. Such final states are motivated by gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking models, in which a neutralino decays to an undetectable gravitino and a photon. If the neutralinos are produced through the strong interaction, the jets in the decay cascade lead to a large amount of hadronic activity. This search uses proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded with the CMS detector in 2016, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 36 fb⁻¹. At least one high energetic photon, hadronic activity and missing transverse momentum are required. Multijet production with real photons or jets identified as photons can also pass this selection, and its contribution to the selection is estimated using data. In addition, the background from electrons misidentified as photons is also estimated using data. Cut-and-count experiments in several bins with high missing transverse momentum and high hadronic activity are performed to evaluate the presence of physics beyond the standard model.
