Search for direct third-generation squark pair production in final states with missing transverse momentum and two b-jets in √s = 8 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector

The results of a search for pair production of supersymmetric partners of the Standard Model third-generation quarks are reported. This search uses 20.1 fb −1 of pp collisions at √s = 8TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The lightest bottom and top squarks (b 1 and t...
