Projected HE-LHC searches could rule out neutralino dark matter up to 2.6, 1.7, and 0.8 TeV in gluino, stop, and wino coannihilation scenarios, but not in stau coannihilation.

abstract
We consider light top squarks (stops) in the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model at the Large Hadron Collider. Here, we assume that the lightest neutralino is the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) and the lighter stop is the next-to-LSP. Stop pair production is difficult to probe at the Large Hadron Collider for small stop-LSP mass splitting. It has been shown previously that even in this case stop detection is possible if one considers stop pair production in association with one hard jet. We reconsider this supersymmetric monojet signature and go beyond previous works by including the full Standard Model background and optimizing the cuts, working at the hadron level and including detector effects. As a result, a larger portion of the stop-LSP mass plane becomes accessible to monojet searches.

On the coverage of neutralino dark matter in coannihilations at the upgraded LHC
Projected HE-LHC searches could rule out neutralino dark matter up to 2.6, 1.7, and 0.8 TeV in gluino, stop, and wino coannihilation scenarios, but not in stau coannihilation.
