Precision Measurement of a Particle Mass at the Linear Collider

Abstract

Precision measurement of the stop mass at the ILC is done in a method based on cross-sections measurements at two different center-of-mass energies. This allows to minimize both the statistical and systematic errors. In the framework of the MSSM, a light stop, compatible with electro-weak baryogenesis, is studied in its decay into a charm jet and neutralino, the Lightest Supersymmetric Particle(LSP), as a candidate of dark matter. This takes place for a small stop-neutralino mass difference.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, 3tables, Conference(Workshop)-LCWS/ILC2007-June,2,200
