Recent results of the searches for Supersymmetry in final states with one or two leptons at CMS are presented. Many Supersymmetry scenarios, including the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (CMSSM), predict a…
We have recently completed a detailed scan of the 19-dimensional parameter space of the phenomenological MSSM, i.e., the CP-conserving MSSM assuming Minimal Flavor Violation(MFV) with the first two sfermion generations degenerate. We found…
We describe recent extensions of the program SPheno including flavour aspects, CP-phases, R-parity violation and low energy observables. In case of flavour mixing all masses of supersymmetric particles are calculated including the complete…
Searches for supersymmetric particles at LEP are first reviewed, with some emphasis on the mass limit for the lightest neutralino. The framework is the MSSM with R-parity conservation, with brief excursions towards mSUGRA and GMSB. Next,…
Lepton flavor and CP violation in supersymmetric models are briefly reviewed. After a short motivation and an introduction to the phenomenology, model independent constraints on mass insertions, predictions of SUSY GUT models and rates for…
We study the effect of SUSY phases on rare decays of leptons and on their magnetic and electric dipole moments. We consider the most general mass matrices for sleptons within the MSSM including left--right mixing, flavour mixing and complex…
Searches for R-parity conserving supersymmetric particles have been performed in e+e- data collected by LEP detectors, at centre-of-mass energies up to 209GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.1fb-1. The results and their…
Searches for supersymmetric particles performed at LEP 1 and LEP 2 are reviewed. Using the MSSM with R-parity conservation as a reference model, the various analyses are briefly described, and the results are presented in terms of mass and…
It has been suggested that residual symmetries in the charged-lepton and neutrino mass matrices can possibly reveal the flavour symmetry group of the lepton sector. We review the basic ideas of this purely group-theoretical approach and…
Following recent experimental developments, in this study we re-evaluate if the interplay of high- and low-energy lepton flavour violating observables remains a viable probe to test the high-scale type-I supersymmetric seesaw. Our analysis…
More than one year after the end of LEPII, many analysis activities are still going on to translate the negative search results of the four LEP experiments into solid limits on cross-sections and masses of SUSY particles. Many analyses…
We begin an exploration of the physics associated with the general CP-conserving MSSM with Minimal Flavor Violation, the pMSSM. The 19 soft SUSY breaking parameters in this scenario are chosen so as to satisfy all existing experimental and…
If Supersymmetry would manifest itself at a low mass scale it might be found already in the early phase of the LHC operation. Generic signatures for Supersymmetry in pp-collisions consist of high jet multiplicity, large missing transverse…
We give a pedagogical review of flavour and CP violation in the lepton sector, with a particular emphasis on new physics - and in particular supersymmetric - contributions to flavour and CP violating observables involving leptons.
After a quick review of the framework for phenomenological analyses of supersymmetry, we summarize current limits on supersymmetric particle masses and discuss strategies for their searches at the Fermilab Tevatron and the LHC. We also…
We investigate the prospects for detection of lepton flavour violation in sparticle production and decays at a Linear Collider (LC), in models guided by neutrino oscillation data. We consider both slepton pair production and sleptons…
The heavy right-handed neutrinos in supersymmetric models can act as the source of lepton flavor violation (LFV). LFV processes like $ \mu \rightarrow e \gamma $, $ \tau \rightarrow \mu \gamma $, $ \tau \rightarrow e \gamma $ is an…
The status of SUSY searches at LEP2 up to centre-of-mass energy of 202 GeV is presented. Search strategies for sleptons, squarks, charginos and neutralinos are discussed in the framework of Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with…
If supersymmetry is relevant at the Fermi scale, the lack of any direct signal so far may require going beyond the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. In this talk I briefly summarize a simple and concrete extension of the MSSM that…
We explore realizations of minimal flavour violation (MFV) for the lepton sector. We find that it can be realized within those seesaw models where a separation of the lepton number and lepton flavour violating scales can be achieved, such…
