Light gluinos and jet production in [formula omitted] collisions

The impact of a light, long lived gluino on jet production cross sections in pp collisions is estimated. The effect is found to be relatively modest, particularly when gluinos are incorporated into the parton densities of the proton. Although a light gluino does enhance the production of jets at hig...

Description
Summary:The impact of a light, long lived gluino on jet production cross sections in pp collisions is estimated. The effect is found to be relatively modest, particularly when gluinos are incorporated into the parton densities of the proton. Although a light gluino does enhance the production of jets at high E T , the effect is insufficient, by itself, to explain the high E T excess observed by CDF.
