Mono-top Signature from Supersymmetric t bar t H Channel

We point out that a distinctive mono-top signature is present in Natural SUSY scenarios when a scalar top-quark and higgsinos are almost mass degenerate. This signature originates from a supersymmetric counter part of the $t \bar t H$ process, i.e. $pp \to \tilde t t \tilde h$. Unlike mono-jet signatures exploiting initial state radiation, this channel can be regarded as a smoking gun signature of a light stop and higgsinos, allowing a direct probe of the stop and neutralino sectors. The production rate of this channel largely depends on the up-type higgsino components in the neutralinos while the stop sector is sensitive to angular distributions of top-quark's decay products. We develop an optimal search strategy to capture the supersymmetric $t \bar t H$ process and find that a high luminosity LHC can probe the stop and higgsino sectors with $m_{\tilde t_1} \lesssim 380$ GeV and $m_{\tilde t_1} - m_{\tilde \chi_1^0} \lesssim m_W$. Additionally, we propose a kinematic variable with which one can measure the stop mixing in this channel.
