Search for second generation scalar leptoquarks in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

The results of a search for the production of second generation scalar leptoquarks are presented for final states consisting of either two muons and at least two jets or a muon plus missing transverse momentum and at least two jets. A total of 1.03 fb−1 integrated luminosity of protonproton collisio...
