Abstract

We calculate the total cross section for single charged slepton production in association with a top quark at hadron colliders in the baryon triality (B3_3) supersymmetric model. We compute event rates for the Tevatron and LHC. We study the signatures for different supersymmetric scenarios including neutralino and stau LSPs. We perform a detailed analysis with basic cuts for the B3_3 operator \lam231\lam^\prime_{231} using Monte Carlo simulations to show that the signal can be distinguished from the background at the LHC. In particular we employ the resulting lepton charge asymmetry.
