Speculations on ALEPH's Dijet Enhancement

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

We interpret the dijet enhancement reported by the ALEPH collaboration in the process e+ee^+e^- \rightarrow 4 jets as being due to the production of a pair of bottom squarks, followed by their R-parity violating decays into pairs of light quarks. Constraints on this speculative interpretation are examined. Some of the consequences of our hypothesis are drawn within the context of softly broken supersymmetry.
