Description
We report on a new search for charged massive stable particles
(CMSPs) at the D0 Experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider.
These electrically charged particles have sufficiently long lifetimes
to penetrate through the entire D0 detector before decaying. CMSPs
are predicted in many theories beyond the Standard Model. We
use time-of-flight information to search for pair-produced CMSPs,
based on the signature of two particles, reconstructed as muons,
with speed and invariant mass inconsistent with beam-produced
muons. The analysis uses data taken by the DO detector
in Run II.
