Search for new phenomena with the monojet and missing transverse momentum signature using the ATLAS detector in sqrt(s) = 7 TeV proton-proton collisions

Abstract

A search for new phenomena in events featuring a high energy jet and large missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV is presented using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 33 pb^-1 recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The number of observed events is consistent with the Standard Model prediction and this result is interpreted in terms of limits on a model of Large Extra Dimensions.
