SUSY-QCD corrections to stop and sbottom decays into W and Z bosons

Abstract

We calculate the supersymmetric $\mathcal{O}({\alpha }_s)$ QCD corrections to stop and sbottom decays into vector bosons within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We give analytic formulae and perform a numerical analysis of these decays. We find that SUSY-QCD corrections to the decay widths are typically -5% to -10% depending on the squark masses, squark mixing angles, and the gluino mass.
