This book describes research in two different areas of state-of-the-art hadron collider physics, both of which are of central importance in the field of particle physics. The first part of the book focuses on the search for supersymmetric particles called gluinos. The book subsequently presents a set of precision measurements of multi-jet collision events, which involve large numbers of newly created particles, and are among the dominant processes at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
Now that a Higgs boson has been discovered at the LHC, the existence (or non-existence) of supersymmetric...
