  2. Important part of the phase space is not covered by the baseline designs at LHC. Much of the large energy, small transverse energy particles are missed. Charge flow MH2 = Mmissing2 = (p1+p2-p1’-p2’)2 = Mbb2 information value low: - bulk of the particles created late in space-time -jet MSSM with large tanb => 10 x sSM! gap gap Energy flow H h information value high: - leading particles created early in space-time P1’ P2’ DMmissing = O(1 GeV) DMbb = O(10GeV) -jet In the forward region (|h > 5): few particles with large energies/ small transverse momenta. Missing Mass: accurate scan in pp  p + X + p using leading p’s 1.1 R-ECFA 26. September 2003 Risto Orava
