Connecting Simplified Models: Constraining Supersymmetry on Triangles

We investigate an approach for the presentation of experimental constraints on supersymmetric scenarios. It is a triangle based visualization that extends the status quo wherein LHC results are reported in terms of simplified models under the assumption of 100\% branching ratios. We show that the (re)interpretation of LHC data on triangles allows the extraction of accurate exclusion limits for a multitude of more realistic models with arbitrary branching ratios. We demonstrate the utility of this triangle visualization approach using the example of gluino production and decay in several common supersymmetric scenarios. A Python script that can be adapted to visualize data on triangular plots can be obtained from https://github.com/renuk16/Triangles.
