We present a search for charged massive long-lived particles (CMLLPs) that are pair produced in p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Our result is a combination of two searches where either one or both CMLLPs are reconstructed in the detector.
We select events with muonlike particles that have both speed and ionization energy loss (dE/dx) different from muons produced in p (p) over bar collisions. In the absence of evidence for CMLLPs corresponding to 6.3 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity, we set limits on the CMLLP masses in several supersymmetric models, excluding masses below 278 GeV for long-lived gaugino-like charginos, and masses below 244 GeV for long-lived Higgsino-like charginos at the 95% C.L.
We also set limits on the cross section for pair production of long-lived scalar tau leptons that range from 0.04 to 0.008 pb for scalar tau lepton masses of 100-300 GeV. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.87.052011
