R-Axion: A New LHC Physics Signature Involving Muon Pairs

In a class of models with gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking, the existence of a light pseudo scalar particle, R-axion, with a mass in hundreds MeV range is predicted. The striking feature of such a light R-axion is that it mainly decays into a pair of muons and leaves a displaced vertex inside detectors once it is produced. In this talk, we show how we can search for the R-axion at the coming LHC experiments.
