Background Estimation from Data for Supersymmetry Searches with ATLAS — Hubert Kroha, Xuai Zhuang, and •Vadym Zhuravlov — Max-Planck-Institut für Physik, Munich, Germany

A discovery of Supersymmetry at the LHC must rely on detailed understanding of the Standard Model backgrounds. We expect to extract the backgrounds from the ATLAS data itself with minimum reliance on Monte Carlo simulation. We present new developments in ATLAS on such data-driven techniques and prospects for their application on first data.
