Description
Various models of new physics, including hidden valley models and some supersymmetric models, predict the existence of long lived particles decaying a significant distance away from
the interaction point, or even leaving the detector undecayed.
We present ATLAS strategies to improve triggering and reconstruction of these events, and discuss prospects for searches in early LHC data.
