A search for pair production of the supersymmetric partners of the Higgs boson (higgsinos $\tilde{H}$) in gauge-mediated scenarios is reported. Each higgsino is assumed to decay to a Higgs boson and a gravitino. Two complementary analyses,…
We consider the baryon parity signals at HERA for the case of the MSSM production mechanisms and the decays via the lepton number violating couplings $L_iQ{\bar D}$. We can probe very small Yukawa couplings $\lam' \gsim 3\cdot 10^{-6}$,…
A recent study [1] has shown that a simplified model predicting a heavy scalar of mass 270 GeV ($H$) that decays to a Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson in association with a scalar singlet of mass 150 GeV ($S$) can accommodate several…
Based on an $SU(2) \times SU(2) \times U(1)$ effective theory framework (aka $G221$ models), we investigate a leptophobic $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{B-L}$ model, in which the right-handed $W^\prime$ boson has the mass of around 2…
Imposing electroweak scale naturalness constraints (low \Delta_{EW}) on SUSY models leads to mass spectra characterized by light higgsinos ~100-300 GeV, highly mixed top-squarks and gluinos at the 1-5 TeV scale and allows for m_h ~125 GeV.…
Recently the ATLAS experiment has reported 3.0 sigma excess in an on-Z signal region in searches for supersymmetric particles. We find that the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model can explain this excess by the production of…
Results are presented for a variety of SUSY Simplified Models at the 14 TeV LHC as well as a 33 and 100 TeV proton collider. Our focus is on models whose signals are driven by colored production. We present projections of the upper limit…
A search for physics beyond the standard model in events with at least three charged leptons (electrons or muons) is presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at…
The requirement of t-b-\tau Yukawa coupling unification is common in simple grand unified models based on the gauge group SO(10), and it also places a severe constraint on the expected spectrum of superpartners. For Yukawa-unified models…
We use the framework of the p19MSSM to perform a fit to the mild excesses over the Standard Model background recently observed in three bins of the ATLAS 1-lepton + (b-)jets + MET search. We find a few types of spectra that can fit the…
We propose a mechanism which could explain a slight excess of top signal rate recently reported by CDF in the framework of the supersymmetric standard model. If the scalar partner of the top (stop) is sufficiently light, the gluino with an…
We combine searches for scalar resonances at the electroweak scale performed by the Large Hadron Collider experiments ATLAS and CMS where persisted excesses have been observed in recent years. Using both the side-bands of Standard Model…
We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC (CMS) with subsequent decays into quarks and LSP for the case of nonuniversal gaugino masses. Visibility of signal by an excess over SM background in (n > 1)jets + E^{miss}_T events…
The results of a search for gluinos in final states with an isolated electron or muon, multiple jets and large missing transverse momentum using proton--proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV are presented.…
Many supersymmetry models feature gauginos and also sleptons with masses below a few hundred GeV. These can give rise to direct pair production rates at the LHC that can be observed in the data sample recorded by the ATLAS detector. The…
We examine the experimental signature of a UV complete Supersymmetry (SUSY) theory, the $G_2$-MSSM. This model predicts that only some superpartners will be produced in possibly detectable amounts at LHC: $p p \rightarrow…
The scenario of multi-sector SUSY breaking predicts pseudo-goldstinos which are not absorbed by the gravitino and their mass can be as low as ${{\cal O} (0.1)}$ GeV. Since the interactions of pseudo-goldstinos are not so weak as gravitino,…
The LHC analyses of processes containing two or more leptons and missing energy, possibly in association with b-jets, show strong tensions with the Standard Model predictions and are known as multi-lepton anomalies. In particular, top-quark…
Exotic leptons in large gauge multiplets, appearing in many scenarios beyond the Standard Model (SM), can be produced at the LHC in pairs or association. Owing to their large masses, their eventual decay products -- SM leptons and bosons --…
We present a new strategy to uncover light, quasi-degenerate Higgsinos, a likely ingredient in a natural supersymmetric model. Our strategy focuses on Higgsinos with inter-state splittings of O(5-50) GeV that are produced in association…
