When the gluino is light and long lived, missing energy is a poor signature for both squarks and gluinos. Instead, $S_q S_q^*$ production in $e^+ e^-$ and $p \bar{p}$ collisions characteristically results in events with $\ge 4$ jets.…
The light gaugino scenario predicts that the lighter chargino mass is less than m_W, gluino and lightest neutralino masses are <~ 1 GeV, and the dominant decay mode of charginos and non-LSP neutralinos is generically to three jets. The…
The tree-level-massless gaugino scenario predicts that the lighter chargino mass is less than m_W and that gluino and lightest neutralino masses are $\lsi 1$ GeV. In this case the dominant decay mode of charginos and non-LSP neutralinos is…
We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC (CMS) with subsequent decays into quarks and LSP for the case of nonuniversal gaugino masses. Visibility of signal by an excess over SM background in (n > 1)jets + E^{miss}_T events…
In the presence of a light singlino-like LSP in the NMSSM, the missing transverse energy - MET - signature of squark/gluino production can be considerably reduced. Instead, a pair of Higgs bosons is produced in each event. We propose…
The light gluino hypothesis can explain the apparent incompatibility between the measurements of $\as$ at low- and high-energy. Such gluinos are produced directlyin four-jet events, for which we perform a detailed analysis. Because the jet…
Heavy flavour tagging provides a broad range of possibilities in testing QCD features at LEP. We present here a study of 4jets events at LEP I where the so-called light gluinos could be directly produced. We show that microvertex techniques…
The assumption that strongly interacting sparticles will decay directly to the LSP plus jets breaks down in situations where those decays are Yukawa suppressed. That occurs when producing the first two generations of squarks and when, at…
The results of a search for gluino and squark pair production with the pairs decaying via the lightest charginos into a final state consisting of two $W$ bosons, the lightest neutralinos ($\tilde\chi^0_1$), and quarks, are presented. The…
We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC (CMS) with subsequent decays into quarks, leptons and LSP in models with effective supersymmetry where third generation of squarks is relatively light while the first two generations…
In the light gluino scenario, squarks in the 100 GeV mass region can be copiously produced at the Tevatron without a second heavy particle. Their subsequent dijet decay into quark plus gluino leads to non-scaling structure in the inclusive…

At hadron colliders, one of the most important channels for sparticle production is expected to be the gluino pair production. In the scenario where the sbottom is lighter than the gluino, gluinos can decay into sbottom and bottom quarks.…
In scenarios with relatively light down squarks, motivated, e.g., by SO(10) D terms, jets + missing $E_T$ signals can be observed at the luminosity upgraded Tevatron even if the squarks are much heavier than the gluinos and the common…
In the light gluino variant of the minimal supersymmetric model gluino pairs can be readily produced in collider experiments even if the squarks are arbitrarily heavy. This enhances the jet transverse energy distributions. In addition the…
Dirac gauginos are a well-motivated extension of the MSSM, leading to interesting phenomenological consequences. At the LHC, gluino-pair production is enhanced while squark production is suppressed as compared to the MSSM, and the decay…
We study the pair production of charginos in e+e- collisions followed by the decay via R-parity violating LQD operators. We determine the complete matrix element squared for chargino decays via LQD or LLE operators. We find regions in MSSM…
Using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79 pb-1, D0 has searched for events containing multiple jets and large missing transverse energy in pbar-p collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Observing no…
The exchange of electroweak gauginos in the $t-$ or $u-$channel allows squark pair production at hadron colliders without color exchange between the squarks. This can give rise to events where little or no energy is deposited in the…
A search for supersymmetry is presented based on events with large missing transverse energy, no isolated electron or muon, and at least three jets with one or more identified as a bottom-quark jet. A simultaneous examination is performed…
