    Radiative Contributions to TGC in the MSSM

    Get PDF
    We give a brief account of recent calculations of radiative contributions to the Triple Gauge Couplings (TGC) from the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), at a 500 GeV e+e−e^+e^- collider. Our results indicate that, although these MSSM virtual contributions indeed are of the order of the expected accuracy on TGC measurements, the generally neglected box contributions to TGC also are likely to be relevant at such high energies.Comment: 4 pages, Latex, 2 Postscript figures, tar'ed uuencoded files, To appear in the Proceedings of the Physics with e+e−e^+e^- Linear Colliders Workshop, Annecy--Gran Sasso--Hamburg 1995, ed.

    Determining fundamental parameters from the chargino sector in Left-Right Supersymmetric models

    Full text link
    Analytical expressions relating the fundamental parameters describing the chargino sector in the context of the Left-Right Supersymmetric model are constructed. A general complex extension of the real non-symmetric chargino mass matrix including all possible CP-violating phases is considered. The method used for such a effects is the projector formalism based on the explicit knowledge of two unitary matrices diagonalizing the chargino mass matrix. Some possible scenarios allowing us to extract analytical and numerical values for the unknown parameters are considered. Moreover, an algorithm allowing us to disentangle the fundamental parameters of the chargino sector, based on possible measurements of some class of cross-section observables related to the chargino pair production in e+e−e^+ e^- annihilation processes, is described. Some comparisons with the corresponding results in the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model are given.Comment: 48 pages, 13 figure

    Complementarity of Gamma-ray and LHC Searches for Neutralino Dark Matter in the Focus Point Region

    Full text link
    We study the complementarity between the indirect detection of dark matter with gamma-rays in H.E.S.S. and the supersymmetry searches with ATLAS at the Large Hadron Collider in the Focus Point region within the mSUGRA framework. The sensitivity of the central telescope of the H.E.S.S. II experiment with an energy threshold of ~ 20 GeV is investigated. We show that the detection of gamma-ray fluxes of O(10^-12) cm-2s-1 with H.E.S.S. II covers a substantial part of the Focus Point region which may be more difficult for LHC experiments. Despite the presence of multi-TeV scalars, we show that LHC will be sensitive to a complementary part of this region through three body NLSP leptonic decays. This interesting complementarity between H.E.S.S. II and LHC searches is further highlighted in terms of the gluino mass and the two lightest neutralino mass difference.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.

    Gravitino dark matter in brane-world cosmology

    Get PDF
    The gravitino dark matter hypothesis in the brane cosmology is studied. The theoretical framework is the CMSSM for particle physics and RS II brane model for gravity. It is found that the gravitino can play the role of dark matter in the universe and we determine what the gravitino mass should be for different values of the five-dimensional Planck mass. An upper bound is obtained for the latter.Comment: Improved version with minor corrections, to appear in JCA

    Inverting the Supersymmetric Standard Model Spectrum: from Physical to Lagrangian Ino Parameters

    Get PDF
    We examine the possibility of recovering the supersymmetric (and soft supersymmetry breaking) Lagrangian parameters as direct {\em analytical} expressions of appropriate physical masses, for the unconstrained (but CP and R-parity conserving) minimal supersymmetric standard model. We concentrate mainly on the algebraically non-trivial "inversion" for the ino parameters, and obtain, for given values of tan⁥ÎČ\tan\beta, simple analytical expressions for the ÎŒ\mu, M1M_1 and M2M_2 parameters in terms of three arbitrary input physical masses, namely either two chargino and one neutralino masses, or alternatively one chargino and two neutralino masses. We illustrate and discuss in detail the possible occurrence of ambiguities in this reconstruction. The dependence of the resulting ino Lagrangian parameters upon physical masses is illustrated, and some simple generic behaviour uncovered in this way. We finally briefly sketch generalizing such an inversion to the full set of MSSM Lagrangian parameters.Comment: Latex, 28 pages, 6 figures, 1 table, some typos corrected, one paragraph extended in section 4.2.

    Phases in the gaugino sector: direct reconstruction of the basic parameters and impact on the neutralino pair production

    Full text link
    We consider recovering analytically the (generally complex) parameters ÎŒ\mu, M1M_1 and M2M_2 of the gaugino and Higgsino Lagrangian, from appropriate physical input in the chargino and neutralino sectors. For given tan⁥ÎČ\tan\beta, we obtain very simple analytic solutions for M2M_2, âˆŁÎŒâˆŁ| \mu|, Arg[ÎŒ]Arg[\mu] in the chargino sector and a twofold ∣M1∣| M_1 |, Arg[M1]Arg[M_1] analytic solution in the neutralino sector, assuming two chargino, two neutralino masses, and one of the chargino mixing angles as physical input. The twofold ambiguity in the neutralino parameters reconstruction may be essentially resolved by measuring the e+e−→χ10χ20e^+e^- \to \chi^0_1 \chi^0_2 production cross-section at future linear collider energies, which we study explicitly with the phase dependences. Some salient features and specific properties of this complex case gaugino "spectrum inversion" are illustrated and compared with the similar inversion in the real case. In particular, our algorithms exhibit in a direct and transparent way the non-trivial theoretical correlation among the chargino and neutralino parameters, and the resulting allowed domains when only a subset of the required physical input masses and production cross-sections is known.Comment: Latex, 28 pages, 10 figure

    Higgs Boson Production in Association with Scalar Top Quarks at Proton Colliders

    Get PDF
    We investigate the production of Higgs particles in association with the supersymmetric scalar partners of the top quark at proton colliders. In the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, the cross sections for the production of the lightest neutral Higgs boson in association with top squark pairs can be rather large, substantially exceeding the rate for the associated Higgs boson production with top quarks. If the lightest top squark is not much heavier than the top quark, this process will enhance the potential of the CERN Large Hadron Collider to discover the lightest neutral Higgs boson, and will open a window to the study of the Higgs-stop coupling, the potentially largest electroweak coupling in the supersymmetric theory.Comment: 9 pages, LaTex, 3 PostScript figures using epsfig.st
