A Search for Squarks and Gluinos in Final States with At Least Two Leptons with the ATLAS Detector

A search for squarks and gluinos in nal states with at least two leptons (electrons or muons) is presented. Events are selected using the Razor variables to discriminate between signal and background processes. This analysis is performed over the full 2012 dataset of proton-proton collisions at 8 Te...
