A T-odd observable sensitive to CP violating phases in squark decay

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v3

Abstract

We present a new observable sensitive to a certain combination of CP violating phases in supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, viz. a triple product of momenta in the cascade decay of a heavy squark via an on-shell neutralino and off-shell slepton. We investigate the regions of parameter space in which the signal is strong enough to be detectable at the LHC with (102103)/sin2(2Δϕ)\sim \bigl(10^2-10^3\bigr)/\sin^2(2\Delta\phi) identified events, where Δϕ\Delta\phi is a certain combination of phases in the MSSM presented in the text.
