Search for squarks and gluinos in events with jets and missing transverse energy using 2.1 fb-1 of p over(p, ̄) collision data at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV

Journal article

A data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.1 fb-1 collected by the DØ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider was analyzed to search for squarks and gluinos produced in p over(p, ̄) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. No evidence for the production of such particles was observed in topologies involving jets and missing transverse energy, and 95% C.L. lower limits of 379 GeV and 308 GeV were set on the squark and gluino masses, respectively, within the framework of minimal supergravity with tan β = 3, A0 = 0, and μ < 0. The corresponding previous limits are improved by 54 GeV and 67 GeV. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
