Search for supersymmetry in events with four or more leptons in √s =8 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector

Results from a search for supersymmetry in events with four or more leptons including electrons, muons and taus are presented. The analysis uses a data sample corresponding to 20.3 fb-1 of proton-proton collisions delivered by the Large Hadron Collider at s=8 TeV and recorded by the ATLAS detector....
