The results of this search will be interpreted in the context of simplified model spectra (SMS). |
| 5 |
< |
For the inclusive analysis, we will use the T5zz model depicted in Fig.~\ref{fig:diagrams} (left). |
| 6 |
< |
For the targeted analysis, we will use the \wzmet\ model depicted in Fig.~\ref{fig:diagrams} (right), |
| 7 |
< |
and a GMSB model which produces a signature of \zzmet. For the \wzmet\ model (GMSB \zzmet\ model), the results of this |
| 8 |
< |
analysis will be combined with the results of searches for charginos and neutralinos in the trilepton (quadlepton) |
| 9 |
< |
final state. |

In this section, we interpret the results of the targeted search in the context of the \wzmet\ model depicted in Fig.~\ref{fig:diagrams} (right) |
| 5 |
> |
and a gauge-mediated SUSY breaking (GMSB) model that produces a signature of \zzmet\ will be added. The results of the targeted search presented here |
| 6 |
> |
will be combined with those of the trilepton ewkino search for the final \wzmet\ interpretation, and with the quadlepton ewkino search |
| 7 |

for the final GMSB \zzmet\ interpretation. |

The exclusion is performed using the results of simultaneous counting experiments in the five exclusive \MET\ signal regions defined by \MET\ $>$ 80 GeV, |
| 10 |
> |
as summarized in Table~\ref{tab:results_targ} (commonly referred to as a ``shape analysis''). |
| 11 |

The upper limit calculation is performed with the LandS software using the LHC-type CLs criterion. |
| 12 |

The signal efficiency uncertainties include the luminosity (4.4\%), acceptance for the b-jet veto (4\%), lepton ID and isolation efficiency (2\% per lepton), |
| 13 |
> |
and trigger efficiency (3\%). The uncertainty from JES is determined following the POG-recommended procedure, by varying the jet energies by the |
| 14 |
> |
\pt- and $\eta$-dependent uncertainties and propagating this to the jet multiplicity, dijet mass, and \MET. |
| 15 |
> |
The background uncertainties are quoted in Table~\ref{tab:results_targ}. For each background contribution, the uncertainty is assumed to be 100\% |
| 16 |
> |
correlated across all signal regions. |
| 17 |

|
| 18 |

For the \wzmet\ model, the signal efficiency times acceptance and cross section upper limits are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:results_wzmet}, |
| 19 |

along with the observed and expected exclusion contours, which are compared to the 2011 observed exclusion contour. |
| 20 |
> |
Figure~\ref{fig:results_wzmetpoints} shows the excluded points used to derive the exclusion contours. We note that the map of exclusion |
| 21 |
> |
contours appears quite ragged since for many of the points the cross section upper limit is very close to the theory cross section. |
| 22 |
> |
Therefore we do not expect the ragged exclusion region to be an issue for the final results since |
| 23 |
> |
we currently have 9.2 fb$^{-1}$ and expect the luminosity to increase significantly. A {\bf VERY APPROXIMATE} projection of the expected excluded region |
| 24 |
> |
for an integrated luminosity of 15 fb$^{-1}$ (a rough guess at the final HCP data sample) is obtained by scaling the expected cross section limits by |
| 25 |
> |
$\sqrt{(9.2 \rm{fb}^{-1})/(15 \rm{fb}^{-1})}$, as displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:results_15fb}. |
