A search for pair-produced resonances in four-jet final states at root s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
2018
Abstract
A search for massive coloured resonances which are pair-produced and decay into two jets is presented. The analysis uses 36.7 fb(-1) of root s = 13 TeV pp collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in 2015 and 2016.
No significant deviation from the background prediction is observed. Results are interpreted in a SUSY simplified model where the lightest supersymmetric particle is the top squark, (t) over tilde, which decays promptly into two quarks through R-parity-violating couplings.
Top squarks with masses in the range 100 GeV ) < 610 GeV. Additional limits are set on the pair-production of massive colour-octet resonances.
