Resonant Slepton Production in Hadron-Hadron Collisions

Abstract

We consider the resonant production of sleptons via R-parity violation 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 R-parity violation. The discovery potential of this process at Run II of the Tevatron and the 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.
