Abstract:
A search has been performed for long-lived particles that have stopped in the
CMS detector, during 7 TeV proton-proton operations of the CERN LHC. The existence of
such particles could be inferred from observation of their decays when there were no protonproton
collisions in the CMS detector, namely during gaps between LHC beam crossings.
Using a data set in which CMS recorded an integrated luminosity of 4.0 fb−1
, and a search
interval corresponding to 246 hours of trigger live time, 12 events are observed, with a mean
background prediction of 8.6 ± 2.4 events. Limits are presented at 95% confidence level
on long-lived gluino and stop production, over 13 orders of magnitude of particle lifetime.
Assuming the “cloud model” of R-hadron interactions, a gluino with mass below 640 GeV
and a stop with mass below 340 GeV are excluded, for lifetimes between 10 µs and 1000 s.
