New Report of the Working Group: .ps(4.3 Mo)  .uu(1.5 Mo)  .zip(1 Mo)

                        List of topics 
                        ===========

 

A) SUGRA-type models / general SUSY at colliders

        contact person : Manuel Drees, drees@ift.unesp.br , drees@pheno.physics.wisc.edu
  1. Finite width effects on slepton and neutralino mass determinations.

    2. This includes both energy distributions (e.g. sleton --> lepton +
    neutralino at e+e- colliders, neutralino_2 --> slepton + lepton at the
    LHC) and effects on the threshold scan at e+e- colliders.

            Interested people:
    Dilip Ghosh (dghosh@theory.tifr.res.in),
    Kiyoshi Kato, Tadashi Kon (kon@apm.seikei.ac.jp),
    Masaki Kuroda (mkuroda@suchi.kek.jp),
    Kosuke Odagiri (odagiri@hep.phy.cam.ac.uk),
    Frank Paige (paige@quark.phy.bnl.gov)

  2. The effect of hard gluon radiation on squark mass determinations at

    3. lepton colliders: Need to compute radiation during squark decay, and
    model impact on mass fits.

            Interested people:
    Manuel Drees (drees@ift.unesp.br),
    Sabine Kraml (kraml@hephy.oeaw.ac.at)

  3. (gg, q qbar) --> gluino gluino gluon as a tool to discover SUSY if

    4. m_gluino \simeq m_LSP: Processes are part of complete NLO calculation,
    but need to be embedded into a (parton-level?) MC code. This is in
    response to a couple of recent papers by N. Krasnikov.

            Interested people:
    Gisele Bordes (bordes@cdf.in2p3.fr),

    3. Tracks from long-lived charged scalars at the LHC.
    Prospects for detection of slow quasi-stable scalars with the
    standard ATLAS/CMS detectors and possible need of an additional
    detector/experiment (MOEDAL).
