Supersymmetry in the gauge sector could be realized as N=1 or N=2 Supersymmetry, but the current LHC searches assume an N=1 realization. In this paper we show that squarks could be as light as few hundreds of GeV for N=2. We also describe an experimental procedure to count the number of supersymmetries, i.e. to distinguish between N=1 and N=2 supersymmetry, based on counting bins with different jet multiplicities and number of leptons.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
