Searches for pair production of third-generation squarks in sqrt(s) = 13 TeV pp collisions

Understand

Searches are presented for direct production of top or bottom squark pairs in proton-proton collisions at the CERN LHC.

• Two searches, based on complementary techniques, are performed in all-jet final states that are characterized by a significant imbalance in transverse momentum.
• An additional search requires the presence of a charged lepton isolated from other activity in the event.
• The data were collected in 2015 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the CMS detector and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 inverse femtobarns.
