  SUSY2001
• Andrei Nomerotski
  Fermilab/D0
• Squarks Gluinos in SUSY
• Run I results
• - jets MET
• - dileptons
• - stop sector
• New results
• Run 2 prospects

2
Squaks and Gluinos in SUSY

• Squarks are are scalar partners of quarks
• Gluinos are fermionic partners of gluons

3
Squaks and Gluinos in SUSY

• Squarks gluinos will be copiously
• produced at Tevatron if they are light
• Production x-sections does not depend
• on SUSY parameters

• Decays are strong function of SUSY
• parameter space
• Assume R parity conservation

4
Stop and sbottom quarks in SUSY

• Stop can be light because top is so heavy
  
• gt large and negative radiation
  corrections
• gt large splitting between
• Sbottom can be light if is large
  

consider decays
Goes via loop if
Is closed.
Or 4 body decay
