Description

The Tevatron collaborations have searched for associated production of charginos and neutralinos via trilepton final states. No events above the standard model prediction were observed. We employ these results to put stringent bounds on R-parity violating models with a right-handed scalar electron as the lightest supersymmetric particle. We work in the framework of lepton number violating minimal supergravity. We find that within these models, the complete parameter space consistent with the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon can be excluded at 90% confidence level. We also give prospects for Tevatron trilepton searches assuming an integrated luminosity of 10 fb-1. We find that Tevatron will be able to test selectron lightest supersymmetric particle masses up to 170 GeV.
