Searching supersymmetry at the LHCb with displaced vertices

Understand

Supersymmetric theories with bilinear R-parity violation can give rise to the observed neutrino masses and mixings.

• One important feature of such models is that the lightest supersymmetric particle might have a sufficiently large lifetime to give rise to detached vertices.
• Working in the framework of supergravity models we analyze the potential of the LHCb experiment to search for supersymmetric models exhibiting bilinear R-parity violation.
• We show that the LHCb experiment can probe a large fraction of the $m_0 \otimes m_{1/2}$ being able to explore gluino masses up to 1.3 TeV.
