Abstract
We consider the resonant production of sleptons via in hadron-hadron collisions followed by supersymmetric gauge decays of the sleptons. We look at decay modes which lead to the production of a like-sign dilepton pair. The dominant production mechanism giving this signature is the resonant production of a charged slepton followed by a decay to a charged lepton and a neutralino which then decays via The discovery potential of this process at run II of the Fermilab Tevatron and the CERN LHC is investigated using the HERWIG Monte Carlo event generator. We include the backgrounds from the MSSM. We conclude with a discussion of the possibility of extracting the lightest neutralino and slepton masses.
