Search for neutralino pair production at the CERN LHC

Abstract: We provide the next-to-leading order (NLO) predictions for the neutralino pair production via quark-antiquark annihilation and gluon-gluon fusion at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, focusing on the lightest neutralino which is likely to be the lightest supersymmetric particle. The dependence of total LO, NLO cross sections, and K factor on the center-of-mass energy, the M2-µ mass plane, the squark mass, and the factorization and renormalization scales is comprehensively analyzed for three different scenarios in… Show more

“…In this section, we briefly give some details regarding our method and input parameters. During our numerical evaluations, we have considered the assumptions and approaches in our previous works [23,38,39] for the gaugino/Higgsino sector. The soft SUSY-breaking gaugino mass parameters M 1 related to the U (1), M 2 related to the SU (2), and the Higgsino mass parameter µ could be taken to be real and positive.…”

“…In scenarios where masses of colored sparticles are larger than a few TeV, the direct production of neutralinos and charginos can be the dominant process of SUSY at the LHC. However, this production mode at the LHC suffers from both relatively small rates and large SM backgrounds [21][22][23]. This motivates the complementary experiments at future linear colliders with low backgrounds and easy signal reconstruction.…”
