Search for Gluinos and Squarks Using Like-Sign Dileptons in p-pbar Collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV

Abstract

We present results of the first search for like-sign dilepton (ee, eμ, μμ) events associated with multijets and large missing energy using 106 pb^-1 of data in p-pbar collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV collected during 1992-95 by the CDF experiment. Finding no events that pass our selection, we examine pair-production of gluinos and squarks in a constrained framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. At tan_beta = 2 and μ=-800 GeV/c^2, we set 95% confidence level limits of M(gluino) > 221 GeV/c^2 for M(gluino) \simeq M(squark), and M(gluino) > 168 GeV/c^2 for M(squark) \gg M(gluino), both with small variation as a function of μ.
