abstract

A search for supersymmetry in events with two or three low-momentum leptons and missing transverse momentum is performed. The search uses proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV collected in the three-year period 2016-2018 by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of up to 137 fb$^{-1}$. The data are found to be in agreement with expectations from standard model processes. The results are interpreted in terms of electroweakino and top squark pair production with a small mass difference between the produced supersymmetric particles and the lightest neutralino. For the electroweakino interpretation, two simplified models are used, a wino-bino model and a higgsino model. Exclusion limits at 95% confidence level are set on $\widetilde{\chi}^0_2 / \widetilde{\chi}^\pm_1$ masses up to 275 GeV for a mass difference of 10 GeV in the wino-bino case, and up to 205 (150) GeV for a mass difference of 7.5 (3) GeV in the higgsino case. The results for the higgsino are further interpreted using a phenomenological minimal supersymmetric standard model, excluding the higgsino mass parameter $\mu$ up to 180 GeV with the bino mass parameter $M_1$ at 800 GeV. In the top squark interpretation, exclusion limits are set at top squark masses up to 540 GeV for four-body top squark decays and up to 480 GeV for chargino-mediated decays with a mass difference of 30 GeV.

  1. A joint explanation for the soft lepton and monojet LHC excesses in the wino-bino model

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A combined fit to four LHC Run 2 searches prefers a wino-bino supersymmetric spectrum with m(wino) ~ 320 GeV and mass splitting ~ 20 GeV, compatible with bino dark matter.

  2. Advancing Higgsino Searches by Integrating ML for Boosted Object Tagging and Event Selection

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A GNN-plus-BDT analysis of fat jets is projected to extend GGM higgsino exclusion reach to 1470 GeV at 14 TeV with 200 fb-1, up from roughly 1025 GeV in current CMS searches.

  3. The Two Scales of New Physics in Loop-Induced Higgs Couplings

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A deviation in the loop-induced Higgs couplings hgg, hγγ, or hZγ caused solely by new vectorlike fermions implies an upper bound on the mass scale of new bosons needed to restore perturbativity and vacuum stability.

  4. Can blind spots save neutralino dark matter in natural supersymmetry models?

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Direct-detection blind spots fail to rescue stable light higgsino dark matter in electroweak-natural NUHM2/NUHM3 models once LZ, LHC soft-dilepton, and Higgs-mass constraints are imposed.

  5. The curtain lowers on directly detectable higgsino dark matter

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using LZ2024 limits, the paper derives new lower bounds on gaugino masses and upper bounds on higgsino mass splittings in decoupled-MSSM higgsino dark matter scenarios, plus projections for the neutrino fog.
