Abstract:

Recently the cusps and endpoints in some kinematic distributions of the antler decay at the LHC can probe the masses of the parity-odd missing energy particles as well as the intermediate particles. We extend this study into the high energy $e^+ e^-$ linear collider, which will provide unambiguous c.m. frame and energy. We found new and more powerful cusp structures of new kinematic observables, possible only at the ILC. As a benchmark scenario, we study $e^+ e^-\to \smu_{R,L}^+\smu_{R,L}^-\mu^+ \mu^- \neuo\neuo$ with SPS 1a parameter set in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model.
