Search for Scalar Top and Scalar Bottom Quarks in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.8$ TeV

Abstract

We have searched for direct pair production of scalar top and scalar bottom quarks in 88 pb${}^{-1}$ of $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.8$ TeV with the CDF detector. We looked for events with a pair of heavy flavor jets and missing energy, consistent with scalar top quark decays to a charm quark and a neutralino, or scalar bottom quark decays to a bottom quark and a neutralino. The numbers of events that pass our selection for each process show no deviation from Standard Model expectations. We compare our results to next-to-leading order calculations for the scalar quark production cross sections to exclude regions in scalar quark-neutralino parameter space.
