Distinguishing Majorana and Dirac Gluinos and Neutralinos

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-05-14 v1

Abstract

While gluinos and neutralinos are Majorana fermions in the MSSM, they can be Dirac fermion fields in extended supersymmetry models. The difference between the two cases manifests itself in production and decay processes at colliders. In this contribution, results are presented for how the Majorana or Dirac nature of gluinos and neutralinos can be extracted from di-lepton signals at the LHC.
