Abstract

The minimal supersymmetric model with light sbottom (mb\sim m_b) and light gluino (12 \sim 16 GeV) can explain the excess of bottom quark production cross section at hadron colliders and has drawn much attention. We calculate one-loop contribution to Z-pole observable RbR_b in this scenario when large CP violating phases are allowed in the gluino mass and/or sbottom sector. We show that these large CP violating phases can suppress the new contribution δRb\delta R_b safely within the experimental bounds even for heavier sbottom too heavy (\wtb2\wt{b}_2 \gtrsim 200 GeV) to be produced at LEP2 in association with light sbottom \wtb1\wt{b}_1.
