The search for new physics by the measurement of the 4-jet cross section at LHC and FNAL
We investigate the possibility to look for new physics by the measurement of
the 4-jet cross section at LHC and FNAL. In particular, we consider the model
with scalar colour octet and the supersymmetric model with R-parity violation.
In both models pair produced new particles decay into 2 jets thus leading to
4-jet events. Therefore, the measurement of the distributions of 4-jet
differential cross section on the invariant dijet masses allows to look for new
physics. The main background comes from standard QCD 4-jet events. We find that
at LHC it would be possible to discover scalar colour particles with masses up
to 900 Gev and for FNAL the corresponding bound is 175 Gev.Comment: 14 pages, late
LHC(CMS) SUSY discovery potential for the case of nonuniversal gaugino masses
We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC(CMS) for the case of
nonuniversal gaugino masses. Visibility of signal by an excess over SM
background in events depends
rather strongly on the relation between LSP, gluino and squark masses and it
decreases with the increase of LSP mass. For relatively heavy LSP mass close to
squark or gluino masses it is possible to detect SUSY for TeV.}Comment: 1 latex (3 pages), 2 eps (figures) files. Presented by N.V.Krasnikov

Uncertainties and Discovery Potential in Planned Experiments
We describe a method for estimation of the discovery potential on new physics
in planned experiments. The effective significance of signal for given
probability of observation is proposed for planned experiments instead of the
usual significances S_1 = n_s/sqrt{n_b} and S_2 = n_s/sqrt{n_s+n_b}, where n_s
and n_b are the average numbers of signal and background events. Application of
the test of equal-probability allows to estimate the exclusion limits on new
physics. We also estimate the influence of systematic uncertainty related to
nonexact knowledge of signal and background cross sections on the discovery
probability of new physics in planned experiments. An account of such
systematics is very essential in the search for supersymmetry at LHC.Comment: 30 pages (1 LaTeX file), 14 eps files (figures), Talk presented by

The probability of making a correct decision in hypotheses testing as estimator of quality of planned experiments
In the report the approach to estimation of quality of planned experiments is
considered. This approach is based on the analysis of uncertainty, which will
take place under the future hypotheses testing about the existence of a new
phenomenon in Nature. The probability of making a correct decision in
hypotheses testing is proposed as estimator of quality of planned experiments.
This estimator allows to take into account systematics and statistical
uncertainties in determination of signal and background rates.Comment: 6 pages (1 LaTeX file), 4 eps files (figures), improved the proof of

New Physics Discovery Potential in Future Experiments
We propose a method to estimate the probability of new physics discovery in
future high energy physics experiments. Physics simulation gives both the
average numbers of background and of signal events. We find that the
proper definition of the significance for , >> 1 is S_{12} =
sqrt(+) - sqrt() in comparison with often used significances S_1 =
/sqrt() and S_2 = /sqrt( + ). We propose a method for
taking into account the systematical errors related to nonexact knowledge of
background and signal cross sections. An account of such systematics is very
essential in the search for supersymmetry at LHC. We also propose a method for
estimation of exclusion limits on new physics in future experiments.Comment: 1 latex files (22 pages), 3 eps files (figures), introduced
