Tau signals of R-parity breaking at LEP 200
The detectability at LEP 200 of explicit R-parity breaking by tau-number (Lτ) violating operators is considered. The assumption of Lτ-violation is motivated by the relative lack of constraints on such coupling but similar considerations apply to explicit Le or Lμ-violation. The LSP, now unstable, and not necessarily neutral, decays via Lτ-violating modes. Only signals from the production and decays of LSP pairs are considered, thereby avoiding any dependence on the sparticle mass spectrum. Rather spectacular signals are predicted: spherical events with m leptons (usually containing at least one τ) and n jets (m, n ⩽ 4), the most characteristic of which are like-sign ττ events. These signals are enumerated for each LSP candidate and quantitative estimates are provided for the favoured case when the LSP is a neutralino. Other new physics signals, which can mimic these signatures, are also briefly discussed.

Parton description of the forward peak in single particle electroproduction with highly virtual photons
The parton mode or the reaction eN→eAB (N = nucleon, A, B = hadrons) in the fixed ω Bj limit is used to discuss the width of the corresponding forward peak as a function of the photon mass.

Stringent low-energy mass constraints in no-scale supergravity.
Spectacular mass constraints are shown to exist at low energies in minimal no-scale supergravity theories. The top quark cannot be too light, the lowest-lying Higgs particle cannot be too heavy, and the pseudoscalar Higgs boson must weigh nearly a quarter as much as the gluino.

Current-commutators and high energy hadron production in e+e− annihilation
Abstract We consider the asymptotic behavior of the structure-functions for the process e + e − → H + everything (where H is a detectable hadron) in terms of commutators involving the electromagnetic current.

On supersymmetry breaking in a strong magnetic field
Using Schwinger's proper time formalism, the author constructs the one-loop effective potential for a supersymmetric non-Abelian gauge theory in a background constant magnetic field and study supersymmetry breaking in the strong-field approximation. The problem of symmetry restoration in non-supersymmetric gauge theory is also discussed.

Quasi-exact solvability of Dirac–Pauli equation and generalized Dirac oscillators
Abstract In this paper we demonstrate that neutral Dirac particles in external electric fields, which are equivalent to generalized Dirac oscillators, are physical examples of quasi-exactly solvable systems. Electric field configurations permitting quasi-exact solvability of the system based on the sl (2) symmetry are discussed separately in the spherical, cylindrical, and Cartesian coordinates. Some exactly solvable field configurations are also exhibited.

Quasi-exact solvability of the Pauli equation
We present a general procedure for determining possible (nonuniform) magnetic fields such that the Pauli equation becomes quasi-exactly solvable (QES) with an underlying sl(2) symmetry. This procedure makes full use of the close connection between QES systems and supersymmetry. Of the ten classes of sl(2)-based one-dimensional QES systems, we have found that nine classes allow such construction.

A note on supersymmetry and magnetic fields
ConclusionIn the present article we have considered two supersymmetric non-abelian gauge theories in the presence of an external magnetic field. In has been shown that the effect of the magnetic field breaks suppersymmetry at the one-loop level; however, if supersymmetry is already broken spontaneously at the tree level, then the magnetic field effect does not restore it at the one-loop level. These facts could be used in SUSY GUT models (which are used to describe the early universe), to study phase transition in those models.

Supersymmetry of a spin particle on the real line
Abstract We study one dimensional supersymmetric (SUSY) quantum mechanics of a spin 1 2 particle moving in a rotating magnetic field and scalar potential. We also discuss SUSY breaking and it is shown that SUSY breaking essentially depends on the strength and period of the magnetic field. For a purely rotating magnetic field the eigenvalue problem is solved exactly and two band energy spectrum is found.
