We examine the case of neutralino dark matter in the focus point region of the MSSM, in which the scalar sparticles are too heavy to be produced at the LHC. Whilst it has been previously asserted that the LHC alone would fail to constrain…
In the context of the minimal supersymmetric seesaw model, we study the implications of the current neutrino data for thermal leptogenesis, $\beta\beta_{0\nu}$ decay, and leptonic flavour- and CP-violating low-energy observables. We express…
We study the decays of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) in models with spontaneously broken R-parity. We focus on the two cases that the LSP is either a bino or a neutral singlet lepton. We work out the most important…
We investigate signatures induced by a very light pseudoscalar Higgs in neutralino decays in the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) and determine their observability at the LHC. We concentrate on scenarios which feature…
Within the framework of the $\mu\nu$SSM, a displaced dilepton signal is expected at the LHC from the decay of a tau left sneutrino as the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) with a mass in the range $45 - 100$ GeV. We compare the…
We study the inclusive production of the next-to-lightest neutralino chi2, decaying directly, or via slepton, into two leptons and the lightest neutralino. The dilepton invariant mass spectrum in these decays has a characteristic sharp edge…
We investigate a neutrino mass model in which the neutrino data is accounted for by bilinear R-parity violating supersymmetry with anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking. We focus on the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) phenomenology,…
Charginos are expected to be the lightest observable supersymmetric particles in many of the supersymmetric models. In the scenario that lighter charginios are pair-produced at CERN LEP II, we present a straightforward procedure for…
Lepton mixing can originate from the breaking of a flavor symmetry in different ways in the neutrino and the charged lepton sector. We propose an extension of this framework which allows to connect the mixing parameters with masses, and…
In supersymmetric models a gluino can decay into $tb\tilde{\chi}^{\pm}_1$ through a stop or a sbottom. The decay chain produces an edge structure in the $m_{tb}$ distribution. Monte Carlo simulation studies show that the end point and the…
We investigate \chi^{+/-}_1 \chi^0_2 pair production at LHC (CMS) with subsequent decays into leptons for the case of nonuniversal gaugino masses. Visibility of signal by an excess over SM background in 3l + no jets + E^{miss}_T events…
When the mass difference between the lightest slepton, the NLSP, and the lightest neutralino, the LSP, is smaller than the tau mass, the lifetime of the lightest slepton increases in many orders of magnitude with respect to typical…
Very little is known about the mass spectrum of fermions in the standard model. In this talk, I point out that in the simplest extension of the standard model, in which all right-handed fields are singlets, it is quite possible that a…
We consider a Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model scenario in which the only light superparticles are a bino-like dark matter candidate and a nearly-degenerate slepton. It is notoriously difficult to probe this scenario at the Large…
In supersymmetric scenarios with a long-lived stau, the LHC experiments provide us with a great environment for precise mass measurements of superparticles. We study a case in which the mass differences between the lightest stau and other…
We examine prospects for detecting the neutral Higgs bosons of minimal supersymmetric models (MSSM) when their decays into neutralino pairs are kinematically allowed. The best signature appears to be $H_h,H_p\to\tz_2\tz_2\to 4\ell +\eslt$.…
We establish a hybrid seesaw mechanism to explain small neutrino masses and predict cold dark matter candidate in the context of the B-L gauge symmetry extension of the Standard Model. In this model a new scalar doublet and two new fermion…
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 decay \tilde\chi^0_i \to \tilde l l, \tilde l \to \tilde\chi^0_1 l, for \l=…
If $R$-parity is not conserved, the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) could decay via lepton number violating or baryon number violating interactions. The latter case is particularly insidious since it leads to a reduction of the…
The quasi-degeneracy of heavier sterile neutrino masses in the Neutrino Minimal Standard Model ($\nu$MSM) facilitates the production of lepton asymmetry below the electroweak scale. The first order loop corrections to this mass-difference…
