Abstract
The LHC inverse problem is infamously challenging when neutralinos and charginos are heavy and pure and other superparticles are decoupled. This limit is becoming more relevant to particle physics nowadays. Fortunately, in this limit, Higgsinos produce a distinctive signature if they are the LSPs or NLSPs. The identifying signature is the presence of equal numbers of Z bosons and Higgs bosons in NLSP productions and subsequent decays at hadron colliders. The signature is derived from the Goldstone equivalence theorem by which partial widths into Z and Higgs bosons are inherently related and from the fact that Higgsinos consist of two indistinguishable neutralinos. Thus it is valid in general for many supersymmetry models; exceptions may happen when Higgsino NLSPs decay to weakly coupled LSPs such as axinos or gravitinos.
