Phys. Rev. D 73, 075010 (2006) [10 pages]Correlated decays of pair-produced scalar taus
Received 9 December 2005; published 18 April 2006
We study the quantum mechanical correlation between two identical neutralinos in the decays of minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) scalar tau (stau) pair produced in e+e- annihilation. Generally, the decay products of scalar (spinless) particles are not correlated. We show that a correlation between two neutralinos appears near pair production threshold, due to a finite stau width and mixing of the staus and/or neutralinos, and because the neutralinos are Majorana. Because the correlation is significant only in a specific kinematical configuration, it can be observed only in supersymmetric models where the neutralino momenta can be kinematically reconstructed, such as in models with R-parity violation. ©2006 The American Physical Society
