Abstract
We have calculated cross-sections for production of superpartners in an alternative form of supersymmetry with modified experimental signatures. The superpartners include an illustrative sample of squarks, gluinos, sleptons, charginos, and neutralinos. The calculations are for proton colliders with center-of-mass energies up to 100 TeV. This version of supersymmetry implies a very different phenomenology from that emphasized in current experimental searches. However, our calculations indicate that, if the present formulation is correct, some superparticles should be observable with the more powerful colliders currently planned -- or possibly at the high luminosity LHC, or even current LHC, with a shift in experimental strategies. In the present theory, fermions, gauge bosons, Higgs bosons, and auxiliary fields have the same basic status as in the standard model and standard supersymmetry (with modified couplings), but there is additionally an unconventional scalar-boson sector with only second-order gauge and Higgs couplings. In the version of the theory treated here and in our previous papers, both sfermions and the dominant dark matter WIMPs belong to this new sector.
