Abstract: | We perform a comprehensive analysis of the decays of charginos and neutralinos in the minimal supersymmetric standard model
where the neutralino is assumed to be the lightest supersymmetric particle. We focus, in particular, on the three-body decays of the next-to-lightest
neutralino and the lightest chargino into the lightest neutralino and fermion–antifermion pairs and include vector boson,
Higgs boson and sfermion exchange diagrams, where in the latter contribution the full mixing in the third generation is included.
The radiative corrections to the heavy fermion and SUSY particle masses will also be taken into account. We present complete
analytical formulae for the Dalitz densities and the integrated partial decay widths in the massless fermion case, as well
as the expressions of the differential decay widths including the masses of the final fermions and the polarization of the
decaying charginos and neutralinos. We then discuss these decay modes, in particular in scenarios where the parameter is large and in models without universal gaugino masses at the grand unification scale, where some new decay channels, such
as decays into gluinos and pairs, open up.
