Search for Supersymmetry at CMS=0D=0A=
Supersymmetry is considered as one of the leading candidates for a model of beyond the standard model physics. It naturally solves the hierarchy problem and provides a possible candidate for dark matter and an elegant solution to the=0D=0A=
gauge coupling unification. Therefore a lot of emphasis is given in probing supersymmetry at high energy physics collider experiments. I will talk about recent results on a search for supersymmetric particles in events with large=0D=0A=
missing transverse momentum produced in center of mass ăs = 7 TeV protonproton collisions using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.98 fb&#8722;1 recorded by the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider.=0D=0A=

A Phenomenological Model for Open-Flavor=0D=0A=
Strong Decays=0D=0A=
In our decay model, the decay interaction consists of both scalar confining=0D=0A=
interaction and One-Gluon-Exchange (OGE) interaction which are exact analogues to the potentials in quark potential model. Later, in order to apply this model to meson decays in u, d, s flavor sector, gluons are treated as=0D=0A=
massive vector bosons and the approximation of four-fermion interaction is thus adopted. Then different roles of two interactions are studied by=0D=0A=
experimentally well established decays as well as D/S ratios of two important channels, b1¨Ö+Î and a1¨Ď+Î. These analyses eventually reveal that scalar interaction dominates in most open-flavor decays and is also preferred by ratio=0D=0A=
test. (Based on Bao-Fei Li, et al., Chinese Physics C 36, 106-116 (2012))=0D=0A=
