Description

The determination of the masses of supersymmetric particles, such as the selectron, for energies above threshold using the energy end-point method is subject to signal deconvolution difficulties and to standard model and supersymmetry backgrounds. The important features of e-tildeR,L± production are used to design an experimentally robust method, with good resolution, both for determining the e(tilde sign)R,L and the χ-tilde10 masses and for suppressing backgrounds. Additional features, such as the determination of the relative leptonic branching ratios of the selectron are present in the method
