Description

A final state consisting of one charged lepton, at least one jet and little missing transverse energy can be an interesting signature of new physics at the LHC that has received only limited attention so far. In this work we discuss the potential sensitivity of such a channel to various new physics scenarios. To demonstrate our point, we consider the application to $R$-parity Violating Supersymmetry (RPV-SUSY) in detail. We find that with the current integrated luminosity at the LHC, the channel can probe large regions of the RPV-SUSY parameter space that are unexplored. In the future, with the High-Luminosity upgrade, the channel allows us to do better than even the strict low-energy bounds on RPV-SUSY.
