Study of the slepton nonuniversality at the CERN Large Hadron Collider

Abstract
In supersymmetric theory, the sfermion-fermion-gaugino interactions convert a sfermion into a fermion in the same chiral multiplet. The effect appears as the asymmetry between m(jl+) and m(jl) distributions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider where jets (j) and leptons (l±) arise from the cascade decay q˜qχ˜20qll˜. Furthermore, the decay branching ratios and the charge asymmetries in m(jl±) distributions are flavor nonuniversal due to the l˜L and l˜R mixing. When tanβ is large, the nonuniversality between e and μ becomes O(10)% level. We perform a Monte Carlo simulation for some minimal supergravity benchmark points to demonstrate the detectablity.
