Search for top squarks and dark matter particles in opposite-charge dilepton final states at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV\n\nA search for new physics is presented in final states with two oppositely charged leptons (electrons or muons), jets identified as originating from b quarks, and missing transverse momentum (pTmiss).\nThe search uses proton-proton collision data at 13 TeV amounting to 35.9 $fb^{\u22121}$ of integrated luminosity collected using the CMS detector in 2016.\nHypothetical signal events are efficiently separated from the dominant ttbar background with requirements on pTmiss and transverse mass variables.\nNo significant deviation is observed from the expected background.\nExclusion limits are set in the context of simplified supersymmetric models with pair-produced top squarks.\nFor top squarks, decaying exclusively to a top quark and a neutralino, exclusion limits are placed at 95% confidence level on the mass of the lightest top squark up to 800 GeV and on the lightest neutralino up to 360 GeV.\nThese results, combined with searches in the single-lepton and all-jet final states, raise the exclusion limits up to 1050 GeV for the lightest top squark and up to 500 GeV for the lightest neutralino.\nFor top squarks undergoing a cascade decay through charginos and sleptons, the mass limits reach up to 1300 GeV for top squarks and up to 800 GeV for the lightest neutralino.\nThe results are also interpreted in a simplified model with a dark matter (DM) particle coupled to the top quark through a scalar or pseudoscalar mediator.\nFor light DM, mediator masses up to 100 (50) GeV are excluded for scalar (pseudoscalar) mediators.\nThe result for the scalar mediator achieves some of the most stringent limits to date in this model.","hasPart":[{"@id":"https://doi.org/10.17182/hepdata.79809.v1/t1","@type":"Dataset","description":"Figure 2 (left).
