108 - Zhenyu Han , Andrey Katz 2013
Stops with the mass nearly degenerate with the top mass, decaying into tops and soft neutralinos, are usually dubbed stealth stops. Their kinematics looks very similar to that of the standard tops events, which leads to events with little or no exces s of missing transverse energy. This complicates the probing of this region of the stop parameter space by hadron colliders, rendering the application of standard searching techniques challenging. In this Snowmass white paper we reanalyze the spin correlation approach to the search of stealth stops, focusing on the feasibility of this search at the 14 TeV LHC. We find, while the statistical limitations significantly shrink compared to the low-luminosity 8 TeV run, the systematic PDF uncertainties pose the main obstacle. We show that the current understanding of PDFs probably does not allow us to talk about top and stop discrimination via spin correlation in the inclusive sample. On the other hand the systematic uncertainties significantly shrink if only events with low center of mass energy are considered, rendering the search in this region feasible.
