SUSY Searches at LEP

Abstract

Between 1995-2000, the LEP e+e- collider has been operated above the Z0 peak, at centre-of-mass energies sqrt(s) = 130-209 GeV. Searches for supersymmetric particles have been performed using these data samples. The results from the four LEP experiments have been combined. Model independent limits on the pair-production cross-sections of supersymmetric particles and constraints on their masses are presented in the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) and in the context of gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking models (GMSB). Results assuming an R-parity violating scenario are also reviewed.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figures, Proceedings of Moriond 03 - QCD wee
