Bottom-Up Reconstruction Scenarios for (un)constrained MSSM Parameters   at the LHC
  We consider some specific inverse problem or "bottom-up" reconstruction strategies at the LHC for both general and constrained MSSM parameters, starting from a plausibly limited set of sparticle identification and mass measurements, using mainly gluino/squark cascade decays, plus eventually the lightest Higgs boson mass. For the three naturally separated sectors of: gaugino/Higgsino, squark/slepton, and Higgs parameters, we examine different step-by-step algorithms based on rather simple, entirely analytical, inverted relations between masses and basic MSSM parameters. This includes also reasonably good approximations of some of the relevant radiative correction calculations. We distinguish the constraints obtained for a general MSSM from those obtained with universality assumptions in the three different sectors. Our results are compared at different stages with the determination from more standard "top-down" fit of models to data, and finally combined into a global determination of all the relevant parameters. Our approach gives complementary information to more conventional analysis, and is not restricted to the specific LHC measurement specificities. In addition, the bottom-up renormalization group evolution of general MSSM parameters, being an important ingredient in this framework, is illustrated as a new publicly available option of the MSSM spectrum calculation code "SuSpect".
