Vector-like quarks~(VLQs) are a common feature of many scenarios of new physics beyond the Standard Model~(SM), which generally decay into a SM third-generation quark with a SM gauge boson, or a Higgs boson. The presence of a new exotic…
The lighter superpartner of the top quark ($\tt_1$) may be considerably lighter than squarks of the first two generations, and hence may be accessible to Tevatron collider searches, even if the other squarks and the gluino are too heavy.…
