Description

The CDF and D0 Collaborations have both reported unusual events in the dilepton + jets sample with very high lepton and missing transverse energies. It is possible, but very unlikely, that these events originate from top quark pair production; however, they have characteristics that are better accounted for by decays of supersymmetric quarks with mass in the region of 300GeV: q→qχw, χw→νl, lw→lχ01. Such a supersymmetric origin also leads to events with large missing transverse energy and either 0, 1, 2 same-sign, or 3isolated charged leptons. copyright 1996 The American Physical Society
