Inclusive Jet E_T Distributions and Light Gluinos

Abstract

In the light gluino variant of the minimal supersymmetric model gluino pairs can be readily produced in collider experiments even if the squarks are arbitrarily heavy. This enhances the jet transverse energy distributions. In addition the slower running of the strong coupling constant in the presence of light gluinos leads to a further enhancement at higher transverse energies relative to the standard $QCD$ expectations. Finally, the enhanced squark gluino production would lead to a Jacobian peak in the $E_T$ distribution at about $M_{\tilde{Q}}/2$. These effects are of about the right magnitude to explain anomalies observed by the $CDF$ and $D0$ collaborations.
