Chargino-Neutralino Virtual Alliance at LEP2 Boundary
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examine the possibility that SUSY particles are light, i.e. have a mass just beyond the final kinematical reach of LEP2. In this case, even if light particles are not directly detected, their virtual effects are enhanced by a “close to threshold” resonance in the s-channel. We find that this resonant effect is absent in the case of light sfermions, while it is enhanced in the case of light gauginos, since neutralinos and charginos add coherently in some regions of the allowed parameter space. We discuss this “virtual-alliance” in detail and try to examine the possibilities of its experimental verification.

Mass Degeneracy of the Higgsinos
The search for charginos and neutralinos at LEP2 can become problematic if these particles are almost mass degenerate with the lightest neutralino. Unfortunately this is the case in the region where these particles are higgsino-like. We show that, in this region, radiative corrections to the higgsino mass splittings can be as large as the tree-level values, if the mixing between the two stop st...
متن کاملSearching for invisible and almost invisible particles at e+e- colliders.
We explore the techniques, cross sections and expected signal signiicance for detecting invisible and almost invisible particles at LEP2 and the NLC by means of a hard photon tag. Examples from supersymmetry include the lightest chargino and second lightest neutralino when their masses are nearly the same as that of the lightest neutralino (the LSP), and invisibly decaying sneutrinos. The impor...

متن کاملHow to Interpret a Tau Excess at LEP2 within the MSSM
Neutralino and tau slepton pair production can naturally produce an excess of tau lepton pairs at the current LEP collider energies. We describe the constraints this has on the values of the mass parameters in the softly broken Supersymmetric Lagrangian, and consider the consequences for superpartner production at LEP and at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The pair production of the LSP and a h...
