Descrizione
Events composed of one high transverse energy jet or photon and large missing transverse momentum represent one of the simplest and most striking signatures that can be observed at a hadron collider. The Standard Model contribution to 'monojet' events is dominated by a Z decaying to a pair of neutrinos plus a recoiling jet. Several new physics models predict monojet and monophoton events. They can occur via production of a jet/photon in association with an invisible particle or via pair production of invisible particles recoiling against a hard radiative jet or photon. The talk presents results from searches for new physics in monojet and monophoton events performed by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC.
