We study the distribution of lepton pairs from the second lightest neutralino decay \tilde{\chi}^0_2-->\tilde{l}l followed by \tilde{l}\to \tilde{\chi}^0_1 l. The distribution of the ratio of lepton transverse momenta A_T shows peak…
In this talk, I review precision SUSY study at LHC and TeV scale e+e- linear colliders (LC). We discuss the study of the 3 body decay of the second lightest neutralino \chi^0_2--> \chi^0_1 ll or the 2 body decay \chi^0_2-->\tilde{l}l at…
It is well known that finding and measuring the masses of particles in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) may be possible using invariant mass distributions in exclusive channels containing…
We present a benchmark in the parameter space of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) that provides for a dramatic multi-lepton signal and no jets containing 5 or more leptons resulting from the cascade decays of the…
We first discuss the motivation for measuring slepton masses at the LHC, emphasizing their importance for cosmology. Next we investigate the possibility of making slepton mass determinations at the LHC in neutralino decays. We demonstrate…
We calculate one-loop corrections to the decays of the next-to-lightest neutralino $\tilde{\chi}_2^0$ into the lightest neutralino $\tilde{\chi}_1^0$ and two leptons; this includes diagrams where a real photon is emitted. In cases where…
In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with conserved R-parity, the decays of the next-to-lightest neutralino into the lightest neutralino and two leptons are always involved in each supersymmetric particle decay chain. In this thesis…
The LEP experiments give a lower bound on the neutralino mass of about 46 GeV which, however, relies on a supersymmetric grand unification relation. Dropping this assumption, the experimental lower bound on the neutralino mass vanishes…
We study two CP sensitive triple-product asymmetries for neutralino production e+e- \to \tilde\chi^0_i \tilde\chi^0_j and the subsequent leptonic two-body decays \tilde\chi^0_i \to \tilde{l} l of one of the neutralinos and of the slepton…
We point out the importance of two-body final states of weak isosinglet neutral heavy leptons predicted in several models of new physics beyond the standard model. We concentrate on muon-type neutral heavy leptons $L_\mu^0$ with mass $M<2$…
The LHC studies on the MSSM slepton sector have mostly been focused on direct slepton Drell-Yan pair production. In this paper, we analyze the case when the sleptons are lighter than heavy neutralinos and can appear in the on-shell decay of…
A complete phenomenological study of the next-to-lightest neutralino decays is performed in the MSSM. The widths and branching ratios for all the possible decay channels (including the radiative decay X0(2) --> X0(1) gamma and the decay…
In this paper we study the gauge mediation signal with the ATLAS detector at the CERN LHC. We focus on the case where the NLSP is the long-lived lightest neutralino ($\tilde{\chi}^0_1$) which decays dominantly into a photon ($\gamma$) and a…
We study the process e^{-} e^{+} -> chi^0_1 chi^0_2 with the subsequent decay chi^0_2 -> chi^0_1 l^{+} l^{-} taking into account the complete spin correlations. We give the analytical formulae for the differential cross section and present…

The $\mu\nu$SSM has been proposed to solve simultaneously the $\mu$-problem of the MSSM and explain current neutrino data. The model breaks lepton number as well as R-parity. In this paper we study the phenomenology of this proposal…
