Signatures of long-lived colored sparticles
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper an updated Geant-4 simulation toolkit is presented describing the interactions in matter of heavy hadrons containing long-lived squarks and gluinos. Generic signatures are derived that are applicable at the Large Hadron Collider, and the problem of theoretical uncertainties arising from model dependence is addressed. For a more detailed description of the assumptions and techniques used, the reader is referred to ref. [1].

SUSY Searches in the ATLAS Experiment
Recent results from the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in the search for supersymmetry are presented. A focus is placed on searches requiring nonstandard techniques in particularly challenging final states. All searches presented here analyze p p collisions with p s = 8 TeV collected in 2012. Within these results, in the absence of significant disagreement from the Standard Model expectations, lim...
متن کاملSparticles at the LHC
Sparticle mass hierarchies will play an important role in the type of signatures that will be visible at the Large Hadron Collider. We analyze these hierarchies for the four lightest sparticles for a general class of supergravity unified models including nonuniversalities in the soft breaking sector. It is shown that out of nearly 104 possibilities of sparticle mass hierarchies, only a small nu...
متن کاملProspects for measuring the mass of heavy , long - lived neutral particles that decay to photons
We describe a novel way to measure the mass of heavy, long-lived neutral particles that decay to photons using collider experiments. We focus on a Light Neutralino and Gravitino model in a Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking scenario where the neutralino has a long-lifetime (O(ns)) as it is not excluded by current experiments. To illustrate our method and give sensitivity estimates we use rec...
متن کاملA study of SUSY signatures at the Tevatron in models with near mass degeneracy of the lightest chargino and neutralino
For some choices of soft SUSY–breaking parameters, the LSP is a stable neutralino χ̃1, the NLSP is a chargino χ̃1 almost degenerate in mass with the LSP (∆mχ̃1 ≡ mχ̃± 1 −mχ̃0 1 ∼ mπ−few GeV), and all other sparticles are relatively heavy. In this case, detection of sparticles in the usual, mSUGRA–motivated signals will be difficult, since the decay products in χ̃1 → χ̃1 . . . will be very soft, and al...
متن کاملAssociated Production of Gauginos and Gluinos at Hadron Colliders in Next-to-Leading Order SUSY-QCD
We report a next-to-leading order (NLO) calculation of the production of gaugino-like charginos (χ̃) and neutralinos (χ̃0) in association with gluinos (g̃) at hadron colliders, including the strong corrections from colored particles and sparticles. We provide predictions of inclusive cross sections at the Fermilab Tevatron and CERN LHC. The NLO contributions increase the sizes of the cross section...
