Some models predict long-lived massive particles due to: – weak coupling ( e.g., NLSP in SUSY models with GMSB) – Kinematic constraints (chargino in SUSY with AMSB) – New symmetry (gluino in split-SUSY, LSP stop in ED models) – High P T, low velocity, highly ionizing “muon” – Measure velocity (  ) via TOF detector + timing from tracking detector – Calculate mass from momentum and  Data Control Region dominated by W  Signal Region MC signal

42. Conclusions With 2 fb-1 of data, and many channels analyzed, the Tevatron is rapidly approaching the sensitivity of expected SM Higgs signals. With a final data set expected to be 6-7 fb -1 per experiment you can look forward to exciting results (2009). Meanwhile : There is also no evidence yet for any MSSM Higgs. Broad searches continue for the signatures of Supersymmetric decays (from squarks, gluinos, charginos, neutralinos & sleptons), but to date, none have been observed. New limits have been set on SUSY masses and mSUGRA parameters.
