Slepton trapping Feng and Smith, hep-ph/ - Slepton could live for a year, so can be trapped then moved to a quiet environment to observe decays LHC: 106 slepton/yr possible, but most are fast. Catch 100/yr in 1 kton water LC: tune beam energy to produce slow sleptons, can catch 1000/yr in 1 kton water S. Su SWIMP
