Abstract

In the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) with RR-parity violation, the high--Q2Q^2 HERA events can be interpreted as the ss-channel production of a single stop of Mt~1200M_{\tilde{t}_1} \approx 200 GeV, whose dominant decay modes are assumed to be the RR-parity violating e++de^+ + d and the RR-parity conserving χ++b\chi^+ + b. Assuming only one coupling λ131ˉ\bar{\lambda_{131}^{'}} is nonzero of order 0.040.12\sim 0.04-0.12, we find that (i) the highQ2-Q^2 HERA events can be understood as an ss-channel stop production with a subsequent decay into e++(single jet)e^+ + (single ~jet), and (ii) the ALEPH 4-jet events can be understood in the scenario suggested by Carena et al.. We briefly discuss other physics signals of this scenario at other places such as HERA, LEP200 and Tevatron. The best test for our scenario is to observe the stop decay into χ++b\chi^+ + b followed by χ+e~++νe\chi^+ \to \tilde{e}^+ + \nu_e and e~+q+qˉ\tilde{e}^+ \to q + \bar{q}^{'} via the RR-parity violating coupling.
