Searches for Pair-Produced Multijet Resonances Using Data Scouting in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s=13 TeV

Abstract

Searches for pair-produced multijet signatures using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 128 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at √𝑠=13 TeV are presented. A data scouting technique is employed to record events with low jet scalar transverse momentum sum values. The electroweak production of particles predicted in 𝑅-parity violating supersymmetric models is probed for the first time with fully hadronic final states. This is the first search for prompt hadronically decaying mass-degenerate higgsinos, and extends current exclusions on 𝑅-parity violating top squarks and gluinos.
