Effective Theory Approach to SUSY Hadron Spectroscopy

Supersymmetric hadrons of the type $\tg\tg$, $\tg g$ and $\tg q\bar q$ could exist depending on the masses of the gluino and the squarks being in an appropriate range of values. We find the energy levels of $\tg g$ and $\tg q\bar q$ bound states (where $q$ denotes a light quark, $u$, $d$ or $s$), as well as the strong interaction transition rates among them, using a Heavy Gluino Effective Theory, much in the same spirit as the well-known Heavy Quark Effective Theory. The results are obtained with greater ease and elegance in comparison to other approaches.
