Search for a Scalar Bottom Quark with Mass 3.5-4.5 GeV/$c^2$

Abstract

We report on a search for a supersymmetric $\tilde{B}$ meson with mass between 3.5 and 4.5 GeV/$c^2$ using 4.52 ${\mathrm{fb}}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity produced at $\sqrt{s}=10.52$ GeV, just below the $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to B\bar{B}$ threshold, and collected with the CLEO detector. We find no evidence for a light scalar bottom quark.
