LHC bounds on colored scalars
We analyze the constraints on colored scalar bosons imposed by the current LHC data at s=13 TeV. Specifically, we consider an additional electroweak doublet of color-octet scalars, satisfying the principle of minimal flavor violation in order to fulfill the stringent experimental limits on flavor-c...

Sumario: | We analyze the constraints on colored scalar bosons imposed by the current LHC data at s=13 TeV. Specifically, we consider an additional electroweak doublet of color-octet scalars, satisfying the principle of minimal flavor violation in order to fulfill the stringent experimental limits on flavor-changing neutral currents. We demonstrate that colored scalars with masses below 800 GeV are already excluded, provided they are not fermiophobic. |
