Search for Gauge Mediated SUSY Breaking topologies with ALEPH data up to 208 GeV
A Garcia-Bellido, L Jones et al
 
Abstract
Searches for topologies characteristic of Gauge Mediated SUSY Breaking models have been performed by analysing 628 pb-1 of data collected at centre-of-mass energies from 189 to 208GeV with the ALEPH detector. These topologies include acoplanar photons, non-pointing single photons, acoplanar leptons, large impact parameter leptons, detached slepton decay vertices, heavy stable charged sleptons and multi leptons plus missing energy final states. No evidence for these new phenomena has been observed and limits on production cross-sections and sparticle masses have been derived. A scan on a minimal GMSB parameter space is performed and model dependent lower limits are derived for the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle (NLSP) mass and the mass scale parameter L, independently of the NLSP lifetime.
