Abstract
We performed a study on the probable existence of long-lived charginos in the focus point region of parameter space in the framework of the MSSM with supergravity inspired soft SUSY breaking. The mass degeneracy of higgsino-like chargino and two higgsino-like neutralinos is the necessary condition for a long lifetime. In this region the chargino are long lived and may go through the detector or produce a secondary vertex when they decay inside the detector. We analyze the production and co-production cross section of long-lived charginos at LHC via electroweak interaction and found that, for light long-lived charginos, the production cross section may reach a few percent of pb. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
