Search for supersymmetry in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV in final states with jets and missing transverse momentum

Understand

Results are reported from a search for supersymmetric particles in the final state with multiple jets and large missing transverse momentum.

• The search uses a sample of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV collected with the CMS detector in 2016-2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb$^{-1}$, representing essentially the full LHC Run 2 data sample.
• The analysis is performed in a four-dimensional search region defined in terms of the number of jets, the number of tagged bottom quark jets, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta, and the magnitude of the vector sum of jet transverse momenta.
• No significant excess in the event yield is observed relative to the expected background contributions from standard model processes.
