Signatures of long-lived colored sparticles

In this paper an updated Geant4 simulation toolkit is presented describing the interactions in matter of heavy hadrons containing long-lived squarks and gluinos. Generic signatures are derived that are applicable at the Large Hadron Collider, and the problem of theoretical uncertainties arising from model dependence is addressed. For a more detailed description of the assumptions and techniques used, the reader is referred to arXiv:0908.1868.
