EWKino Production and Long-Lived particles at LHC

The Large Hadron Collider has extended the reach of particle-physics experiments with a potential for discovery of new physics at the TeV scale and many searches have been carried out by both ATLAS and CMS. Searches for long-lived particles and electroweak “ino” production using 2012 LHV data have been carried by both ATLAS and CMS. The methodology of the searches (reconstruction techniques, background suppression, etc.) and the sensitivity of these searches are reviewed. Many models of physics beyond the Standard Model predict new particles with long lifetimes. Examples include Supersymmetry with R-parity violation, suppressed decays of the next-to-lightest Supersymmetric particle, or models with hidden sectors. The decay vertices of particles with lifetimes of order 10 ps to 10 ns can be efficiently identified by the ATLAS and CMS detectors. In addition, in quark and gluons collisions it is easy to produce coloured objects like gluinos and squarks, which decay typically to jets and MET, while the cross sections for Electroweak productions are smaller and the mass reach substantially reduced. These "ewkinos" decays typically produce many leptons and MET. The searches of these decays are generally based directly or indirectly on MET analyses.
