We study the phenomenology of supersymmetric models in which gauge-singlet scalars mix with the MSSM sneutrinos through weak-scale $A$ terms. After reviewing the constraints on mixed-sneutrino dark matter from measurements of $\Omega_{CDM}$…
Sneutrino-antisneutrino mixing occurs in a supersymmetric model where neutrinos have nonzero Majorana masses. This can lead to the sneutrino decaying into a final state with a "wrong-sign charged lepton". In an $e^- \gamma$ collider, the…

A feasibility study is presented to precisely measure the masses of charged sleptons and the lightest neutralino in $e^+e^-\to\smur\smur$ and $e^+e^-\to\stau_1\stau_1$ production. Different mSUGRA scenarios with small slepton-neutralino…
Production and decay of gaugino-like charginos are crucially determined by sneutrino exchange. Therefore we study the pair production of charginos e^+ e^- -> chi^+_1 chi^-_1 with polarized beams and the subsequent decay chi^-_1 -> chi^0_1…
We examine the production and the decay modes of neutralinos and charginos in a softly-broken supersymmetric model with an extra Abelian symmetry U(1)'. We perform the study in a U(1)' model with a secluded sector, where the tension between…
We study the distribution of lepton pairs from the second lightest neutralino decay \tchi^0_2\to\tchi^0_1 l^+l^-. This decay mode is important to measure the mass difference between \tchi^0_2 and the lightest neutralino \tchi^0_1, which…
It is one of the most challenging tasks at the Large Hadron Collider and at a future Linear Collider not only to observe physics beyond the Standard Model, but to clearly identify the underlying new physics model. In this paper we…
We argue that future e^{+} e^{-} linear colliders can produce many sneutrinos if lepton-number violating couplings lambda_{1j1} exist and enough beam polarization is obtained. The terms lambda_{ijk} L_{i} L_{j} E_{k}^{c} are allowed in a…
