Abstract
We search for new physics using events with one high transverse energy phot on, two or more jets, and an apparent imbalance in transverse energy, in p (p) over bar collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron at root s = 1.8 TeV. Such events are predicted for production of supersymmetric particles in some mod els. No excess is observed beyond expected background. For the parameter sp ace of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with branching fraction B( <(chi)over tilde>(0)(2) --> gamma<(chi)over tilde>(0)(1)) = and m<(chi)over tilde>(0)(2) - m<(chi)over tilde>(0)(1) > 20 GeV, we obtain a 95% confiden ce level lower mass limit of 310 GeV for equal mass squarks and gluinos. Th e results are also interpreted in models with low energy gauge mediated sup ersymmetry breaking. [S0031-9007(98)08065-X].
