Abstract

Though the minimal model of anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking has been significantly constrained by recent experimental and theoretical work, there are still allowed regions of the parameter space for moderate to large values of tanβ\tan\beta. We show that these regions will be comprehensively probed in a s=1{\sqrt s} =1 TeV e+ee^+e^- linear collider. Diagnostic signals to this end are studied by zeroing in on a unique and distinct feature of a large class of models in this genre: a neutral winolike Lightest Supersymmetric Particle closely degenerate in mass with a winolike chargino. The pair production processes e+ee~L±e~Le^+e^- \to {\tilde e}_L^\pm {\tilde e}_L^\mp, e~R±e~R{\tilde e}_R^\pm {\tilde e}_R^\mp, e~L±e~R{\tilde e}_L^\pm {\tilde e}_R^\mp, ν~ν~ˉ{\tilde \nu} {\bar {\tilde \nu}}, χ~10χ~20\widetilde \chi^0_1 \widetilde \chi^0_2, χ~20χ~20\widetilde \chi^0_2 \widetilde \chi^0_2 are all considered at s=1\sqrt s = 1 TeV corresponding to the proposed TESLA linear collider in two natural categories of mass ordering in the sparticle spectra. The signals analysed comprise multiple combinations of fast charged leptons (any of which can act as the trigger) plus displaced vertices XDX_D (any of which can be identified by a heavy ionizing track terminating in the detector) and/or associated soft pions with characteristic momentum distributions.
