At the Linear Collider mismatches between the two beams will result in an intense beamstrahlung. We have studied how this beamstrahlung would evolve as a function of the offset between the two beams and we suggest ways of monitoring it.
We discuss perturbative and non-perturbative strong interaction effects in the pair production of stop squarks ($\tilde{t}_1$) at $e^+ e^-$ colliders. Events with an additional hard gluon allow to detect or exclude stop pair production even…
