Sneutrinos from Cygnus X-3?

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

The possibility that the underground muons arriving from Cygnus X-3 are due to a flux of sneutrinos is analyzed. Crude approximations show that the muons can be due to a resonance production of light charged gauginos produced in sneutrino-electron collisions.
