abstract

A search for pair production of a scalar partner of the top quark in events with four or more jets plus missing transverse momentum is presented. An analysis of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s}$=13 TeV proton-proton collisions collected using the ATLAS detector at the LHC yields no significant excess over the expected Standard Model background. To interpret the results a simplified supersymmetric model is used where the top squark is assumed to decay via $\tilde{t}_1 \rightarrow t^{(*)} \tilde\chi^0_1$ and $\tilde{t}_1\rightarrow b\tilde\chi^\pm_1 \rightarrow b W^{(*)} \tilde\chi^0_1$, where $\tilde\chi^0_1$ ($\chi^\pm_1$) denotes the lightest neutralino (chargino). Exclusion limits are placed in terms of the top-squark and neutralino masses. Assuming a branching ratio of 100% to $t \tilde\chi^0_1$, top-squark masses in the range 450-950 GeV are excluded for $\tilde\chi^0_1$ masses below 160 GeV. In the case where $m_{\tilde{t}_1}\sim m_t+m_{\tilde\chi^0_1}$, top-squark masses in the range 235-590 GeV are excluded.

  1. Towards NNLO QCD predictions for off-shell top-quark pair production and decays

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    The first NNLO QCD prediction for off-shell W+W-bbbar production with massive bottom quarks at the LHC, using a double-pole approximation for the two-loop virtual and an on-shell matching for non-factorisable corrections.

  2. Gravitational Waves from Dark Gauge Sectors

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A dark SU(2) gauge sector that explains vector dark matter can produce LISA-detectable gravitational waves from a first-order phase transition, with a companion six-top signature at the HL-LHC.

  3. Strong first-order phase transitions in the NMSSM --- a comprehensive survey

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the NMSSM, strong first-order electroweak phase transitions occur in four distinct phase-structure patterns, but only the simultaneous Higgs-singlet transition and the singlet-first-keeping-sign transition are like...

  4. Revisiting the Electroweak Supersymmetry from the Generalized Minimal Supergravity

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A GmSUGRA parameter scan maps viable neutralino dark matter scenarios for both signs of mu and claims a first sbottom coannihilation region for mu<0, though internal contradictions weaken that claim.
