First, right click on the Chrome Omnibox and choose 'Edit search engines...'. Alternatively, go to Chrome Options and click on the 'Manage' button in 'Default search:' area. Either way you should now be looking at the 'Search Engines' dialog...

Click the Add button to create the following search engine...
Name: Twitter User
Keyword: @
URL: http://twitter.com/@%s

Click OK.
Next, click the Add button again to create our second search engine like this...
Name: Twitter Hashtag
Keyword: #
URL: http://twitter.com/search?q=%23%s

Click OK and then close any remaining open dialog windows.
So now, whenever you start typing the @ symbol Chrome will activate the Twitter User search

and whenever you want to search for a hashtag just start typing with the #symbol...
