Abstract

A large sample of possible new physics signatures have been investigated by both ATLAS and CMS within the Simplified Models (SMS) framework. So far the focus has been on supersymmetric simplified models or specific effective theory scenarios. Here we propose to extend the interpretation of some of the experimental results to other Beyond the Standard Model scenarios, with focus on the search for resonances and Dark Matter. An important by product of such exercise will be the construction of a database of simplified models, which will allow us to apply the LHC constraints to a variety of distinct full BSM model signatures. This will be possible through the inclusion of these new simplified models in the SModelS software, which has been developed by members of these project. (AU)
