Distribution of $N_{\text{hits}}^{\text{low dE/dx}}$ in the SR and the CR for the early 2016 data set, as well as for an FCP signal at a mass of 100 GeV and different charge scenarios. The vertical bars and the shaded area correspond to the statistical uncertainty in the SR and the CR, respectively. The p-value of the fit is 6%. The two lower panels show the ratio of the number of tracks observed in the CR (upper) and SR (lower), and the fit function. The vertical bars correspond to the uncertainty from statistical sources, while the shaded area shows the systematic uncertainty in the fit due to the choice of the fitting function and the binomial fit range as explained in low dE/dx the main text. Comparing with respect to the binomial fit starting at $N_{\text{hits}}^{\text{low dE/dx}} = 2$, and not $N_{\text{hits}}^{\text{low dE/dx}} = 1$, is needed to account for the fact that early 2016 data is more strongly affected low dE/dx by instrumental effects that widen the N hits distribution.

Signal cross sections are calculated at approximately NNLO+NNLL order in $\alpha_S$.

Exclusion limits at 95% CL for direct squark pair production, where the squarks decay to light-flavor quarks and either the lightest neutralino, or the lightest chargino, and the chargino mass is O(100) MeV greater than the neutralino's mass. The chargino's lifetime is varied from $c\tau_{0} = 5$ to 1000 cm while the squark mass is fixed to 2000 GeV and the neutralino's mass is fixed to 1000 GeV. Signal cross sections are calculated at approximately NNLO+NNLL order in $\alpha_S$, and the eight light squarks' masses are assumed to be degenerate.

Exclusion limits at 95% CL for direct stop pair production, where the stops decay to either a top and the lightest neutralino, or a bottom and the lightest chargino, and the chargino mass is O(100) MeV greater than the neutralino's mass. The chargino's lifetime is varied from $c\tau_{0} = 5$ to 1000 cm while the stop mass is fixed to 1100 GeV and the neutralino's mass is fixed to 1000 GeV. Signal cross sections are calculated at approximately NNLO+NNLL order in $\alpha_S$.
