Z' Discovery Limits For Supersymmetric E_6 Models

We study how the exotic particles and supersymmetric partners would affect the discovery limit at the Tevatron and LHC for neutral gauge bosons in generic E_6 models. We examine the Z' decay in the extreme case that all of the particles are massless, then consider how the masses of non-standard model particles will affect the discovery limit. We also calculate the discovery limit for a supersymmetric E_6 model with a secluded sector as a concrete example of a model with a definite set of exotic particles. Its discovery limit is small compared with other E_6 models due to the U'(1) charge assignment.
