In this short note, we describe the preparation of updated templates for the interpretation of SUSY results from the LHC in the context of mSUGRA. The standard (m0,m1/2) plane is shown for fixed mu > 0 and mt = 173.2 GeV. Two scenarios are considered: (1) A0 = 0 GeV and tan(beta)=10 and (2) A0 = -500 GeV and tan(beta)=40. In each case, the universal scalar mass parameter m0 varies in the range [40,3000] GeV, while the universal gaugino mass parameter m1/2 varies in the range [100,1000] GeV. We delineate notable regions in parameter space, including the region with a charged LSP (stau), the LEP2 reach, and the cosmologically preferred region with 100% neutralino dark matter. The templates also show mass contours for a few key particles (gluino, squark and Higgs boson). The mass spectrum is calculated with the SoftSusy-3.2.4 package, while the neutralino relic density is obtained with MicrOMEGAs version 2.4.
