Final states containing charged leptons could provide some of the most distinctive signatures for observing physics beyond the Standard Model. We present searches for new physics using 0.32-0.45 /fb of data accumulated at the Tevatron. No…
We consider a class of BSM models where a generic scalar electroweak multiplet obtains a significant fraction of its mass from a coupling to the Higgs. Such models are non-decoupling: their new states are necessarily at the TeV scale or…

The light slepton-sneutrino scenario with non-universal scalar masses at the GUT scale is preferred by the electroweak precision data. Though a universal soft breaking mass at or below the Plank scale can produce the required…
