Kurzfassung

A search for stable massive particles with electric charges of |q|=2e to |q|=6e is performed with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. A dataset of 4.4fb−1 is searched for highly ionization muon signatures. No deviation from the standard model expectations is observed and 95% CL upper cross section limits on the order of O(0.01−0.1pb) are set. This result represents the first limit on the production cross section of stable massive particles with charges |q|=2e to |q|=5e published by the ATLAS collaboration and improves a previous limit on particles with |q|=6e by two orders of magnitude.
