For his physics analysis work, the student will analyse ATLAS data and simulations to develop optimal searches for supersymmetric (SUSY) signals in lepton-rich final states, also in view of future LHC luminosity upgrades. The main focus will be on potential' signals from electroweak SUSY particles, such as charginos and neutralinos, decaying to multileptonic final states. To this purpose, the student will also study relevant Standard Model processes, such as multiboson processes or processes in which top quarks are produced, which are important backgrounds for SUSY searches. He will also collaborate with ATLAS trigger experts and make significant contributions to the development of software for the ATLAS trigger system, also in view of luminosity upgrades. He will participate in ATLAS experimental operations as relevant. Over the course of his PhD, the student will visit CERN and other locations (in the UK and abroad) regularly, for the purpose of acquiring relevant research skills as well as other important transferable skills, and to interact efficiently with non-Sussex ATLAS experts and members of the particle physics community at large. He will also spend an extended period of time (Long-Term Attachment) at CERN.

对于他的物理分析工作，学生将分析ATLAS数据和模拟，以开发最佳搜索超对称（SUSY）信号在轻子丰富的最终状态，也鉴于未来的LHC光度升级。主要的焦点将是从电弱超对称粒子，如电荷和中性伴子，衰变到多轻子末态的潜在信号。为此，学生还将学习相关的标准模型过程，例如多玻色子过程或产生顶夸克的过程，这是SUSY搜索的重要背景。他还将与ATLAS触发器专家合作，为ATLAS触发器系统的软件开发做出重大贡献，同时考虑到光度升级。他将参加ATLAS的相关实验操作。在他的博士课程，学生将访问欧洲核子研究中心和其他地点（在英国和国外）定期，为获得相关的研究技能以及其他重要的可转移技能的目的，并有效地与非苏塞克斯ATLAS专家和广大粒子物理社区的成员进行互动。他还将在CERN度过一段时间（长期依恋）。
