chi^2 Analysis of Supersymmetric Models

We discuss the results of a global fit to precision data in supersymmetric models. We consider both gravity- and gauge-mediated models. As the superpartner spectrum becomes light, the global fit to the data typically results in larger values of chi^2. We indicate the regions of parameter space which are excluded by the data. We discuss the additional effect of the B(B --> X_s\gamma) measurement. Our analysis excludes chargino masses below MZ in the simplest gauge-mediated model with mu>0, with stronger constraints for larger values of tan beta.Comment: 11 pages, 13 figures.

Analysis of Long-Lived Slepton NLSP in GMSB model at Linear Collider

We performed an analysis on the detection of a long-lived slepton at a linear collider with $\sqrt{s}=500$ GeV. In GMSB models a long-lived NLSP is predicted for large value of the supersymmetry breaking scale $\sqrt{F}$. Furthermore in a large portion of the parameter space this particle is a stau. Such heavy charged particles will leave a track in the tracking volume and hit the muonic detector. In order to disentangle this signal from the muon background, we explore kinematics and particle identification tools: time of flight device, dE/dX and Cerenkov devices. We show that a linear collider will be able to detect long-lived staus with masses up to the kinematical limit of the machine. We also present our estimation of the sensitivity to the stau lifetime.Comment: Minor changes, Ref. 10 fixed. 12 pages, RevTex, 4 eps figure

The Search for Supersymmetry at the Tevatron Collider

We review the status of searches for Supersymmetry at the Tevatron Collider. After discussing the theoretical aspects relevant to the production and decay of supersymmetric particles at the Tevatron, we present the current results for Runs Ia and Ib as of the summer of 1997.
