Supersymmetry Studies at Future Linear $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ Colliders

Abstract

We examine various aspects of supersymmetric particle production at linear $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ colliders operating at a centre of mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=500$ GeV, and integrated luminosity of $\int \mathcal{L}dt=20-50$ fb${}^{-1}$. Working within the framework of the minimal supergravity model with gauge coupling unification and radiative electroweak symmetry breaking (SUGRA), we study various signatures for detection of sparticles, taking into account their cascade decays, and map out the regions of parameter space where these are observable. We also examine strategies to isolate different SUSY processes from another. In addition, we perform four detailed SUGRA case studies and examine the detectability of sparticles when several SUSY processes are simultaneously occuring. We show that precision mass measurements of neutralinos, sneutrinos and top-squarks are possible, in addition to previously studied precision mass measurements of sleptons and charginos.
