Abstract

Searches for the direct pair production of the third generation squarks are\npresented in this conference report, based on proton-proton collisions at a\ncenter-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity\nof 35.9 fb^-1, collected by the CMS detector. New techniques have been\ndeveloped to address different kinematical regimes. In absence of statistically\nsignificant deviations from the standard model background, limits have been\nderived in terms of simplified model spectra, excluding for example a stop up\nto a mass of 1.05~TeV when it decays to a top and a massless neutralino.\n
