To unambiguously claim that we see a gluino at the LHC we need to prove its fermionic nature. Looking only at angular correlations we can distinguish a universal extra dimensional interpretation of a gluino cascade decay (assuming a bosonic…
Supersymmetry may be discovered at hadron colliders by searching for events similar to the top quark signal of two isolated leptons. In the case of gluino production, the most distinguishing feature is that in half the events the two…
In this thesis we concentrate on the determination of the spin of an intermediate particle by using a decay chain. In SUSY the gluino is especially interesting for searches at the LHC, since it is a Majorana fermion which can produce…
We re-examine like-sign dilepton signals at the Fermilab Tevatron assuming that the excess high-$Q^2$ events recently seen at HERA are due to scalar resonances such as squarks of $R$-parity-violating supersymmetry. For gluinos in the mass…
Gluinos and neutralinos, supersymmetric partners of gluons and neutral electroweak gauge and Higgs bosons, are Majorana particles in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model [MSSM]. Decays of such self-conjugate particles generate charge…
A systematic analysis of the like-sign dipleton signature for gluino production at LHC is performed in the $R$-conserving minimal supersymmetric standard model, taking into account the top quark and Higgs boson effects in the cascade decay.…
We demonstrate the possibility of studying weakly interacting new particles in weak boson fusion, using the example of supersymmetric same-sign charginos. This signal could establish the existence of Majorana neutralinos and give access to…
We discuss the possibility of same-sign dileptons as a signature for Majorana neutrinos. The production mechanism is given by a single heavy neutrino production and decay proton-proton -> l^{\pm} N X -> l^{\pm} l^{\pm} X'. Cross section and…
Gluinos are expected to be one of the most massive sparticles (supersymmetric partners of usual particles) which constitute the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The gluinos are the partners of the gluons and they are color…
While gluinos and neutralinos are Majorana fermions in the MSSM, they can be Dirac fermion fields in extended supersymmetry models. The difference between the two cases manifests itself in production and decay processes at colliders. In…
In compressed supersymmetry, a light top squark naturally mediates efficient neutralino pair annihilation to govern the thermal relic abundance of dark matter. I study the LHC signal of same-sign leptonic top-quark decays from gluino and…
The production and decay of new possible heavy Majorana neutrinos are analyzed in hadronic collisions. New bounds on the mixing of these particles with standard neutrinos are estimated according to a fundamental representation suggested by…
Present data indicates that the gluino (if it exists) must be heavier than about 95~GeV. During the next few years as the Tevatron integrated luminosity increases, gluino searches will be able to probe the mass range between 100 and…
The isolated like sign dilepton signature for gluino production is investigated at the LHC energy for the $R$ conserving as well as the $L$ and $B$ violating SUSY models over a wide range of the parameter space. One gets viable signals for…
Within a mirror type assignment for the excited composite fermions the neutrino mass term is built up from a Dirac mass, $m_*$, which gives the mass of charged lepton component of the $SU(2)$, right-handed, doublet, and a Majorana mass,…

Large fermionic multiplets appear in different extensions of the Standard Model (SM), which are essential to predict small neutrino masses, relic abundance of the dark matter (DM) and the measured value of muon anomalous magnetic moment…

We present a new method to search for a light scalar top with $m_{\tilde{t}_1}\lsim m_t$, decaying dominantly into a c-jet and the lightest neutralino, at the LHC. The principal idea is to exploit the Majorana nature of the gluino, leading…
