Light Gluino And Tevatroin Dijet Angular Distributions

Abstract

We consider the effects of a light gluino on the dijet angular distributions in p - pbar collisions at sqrt(s)=1800 GeV. We show that the slower running of alpha_s and the production q qbar, g g -> Gino Gino do not significantly alter the expected angular distributions. On the other hand, single U, D squark production q g -> Q Gino with subsequent Q -> q g results in dijets whose angular distributions are dramatically different from that in SM. The CDF data on dijet angular distributions with integrated luminosity of 106 pb^(-1) exclude U, D squarks in the mass ranges 170 < m < 650 and 190 < m < 600 GeV, We consider lower energies as well and show that in a future experimental analysis for dijet mass below 240 GeV squarks could be observed or ruled out.
