New Collider Bound on Light Gravitino Mass
نویسنده
چکیده
In supergravity theories with a very light gravitino, the gluino decays dominantly to a gluon and a gravitino. This results in a much larger missing ET for the multijet final states in hadronic colliders. We use the latest Tevatron data for the multijet final states to set a new absolute lower bound of 3.0 × 10 GeV for the light gravitino mass.

Dfpd 99/ep/15 Sensitivity to the Gravitino Mass from Single-photon Spectrum at Tesla Linear Collider
A superlight gravitino G̃ (several orders of magnitude lighter than the eV) is predicted by supersymmetric models . In the last years, the possibility of detecting a light gravitino in accelerator experiments was studied in detail , the cross-section for the process e+e− → G̃G̃γ was computed and experimental values were obtained by LEP experiments . According to 2 this cross-section can be very la...
متن کاملDetermining Reheating Temperature at Colliders with Axino or Gravitino Dark Matter
After a period of inflationary expansion, the Universe reheated and reached full thermal equilibrium at the reheating temperature TR. In this work we point out that, in the context of effective low-energy supersymmetric models, LHC measurements may allow one to determine TR as a function of the mass of the dark matter particle assumed to be either an axino or a gravitino. An upper bound on thei...

متن کاملLight gravitinos at colliders and implications for cosmology
Light gravitinos, with mass in the eV to MeV range, are well motivated in particle physics, but their status as dark-matter candidates is muddled by early-Universe uncertainties. We investigate how upcoming data from colliders may clarify this picture. Light gravitinos are produced primarily in the decays of the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle, resulting in spectacular signals, includi...
متن کاملA Re-analysis of Gravitino Dark Matter in the Constrained MSSM
We re-consider the gravitino as dark matter in the framework of the Constrained MSSM. We include several recently suggested improvements on: (i) the thermal production of gravitinos, (ii) the calculation of the hadronic spectrum from NLSP decay and (iii) the BBN calculation including stau bound-state effects. In most cases we find an upper bound on the reheating temperature TR ∼ < a few×10 7 Ge...
