Signals for Supersymmetry at HERA

Abstract

We summarize two sets of signals at HERA in supersymmetric models with explicitly broken R-parity. (1) The resonant production of single squarks through an operator L1QiDˉjL_1Q_i{ \bar D}_j. (2) The MSSM production of a squark and a slepton followed by R-parity violating decays via the operators LiQjDˉkL_iQ_j{\bar D}_k. The first case allows for a very large mass reach: mq~275\gevm_{\tilde q}\leq 275\gev for moderate couplings. For masses 100\gev\sim 100\gev couplings down to \lam103\lam\geq10^{-3} can be probed. In the second case the production mechanism is independent of the R-parity violating Yukawa couplings. The full generation structure and very low couplings, 10610^{-6}(!!), can be probed. In the most optimistic case the mass reach is 170,195,205\gev170,195,205\gev for the operators Lτ,μ,eQDˉL_{\tau,\mu,e}Q{\bar D} respectively. We conclude that HERA offers a {\it very promising} discovery potential for \rpv\ SUSY.}}
