Z decay constraints on supersymmetric particles revisited

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

The allowed regions in the chargino-gluino mass plane are mapped out using the latestZ decay data from experiments. The determination of these masses in future experiments will uniquely fix the neutralino mass spectrum for a fixedv 1/v 2. Since the usual two-fold ambiguity is removed by LEP data for gluino masses upto 200 GeV. Constraints have also been placed on neutralino masses.
