abstract

Six top signatures provide a novel probe of new physics. We discuss production of six top quarks as the decay products of a pair of top partners in the setting of a composite Higgs model, and argue that the six top signal may generically provide one of the first final states to show a discrepancy. We construct an analysis based on quantities such as $H_T$ and the numbers of jets which are tagged as boosted tops, $W$s, or containing $b$-tags, and show that the LHC with 3~ab$^{-1}$ can discover top partners with masses up to around 2.5 TeV in the six top signature.

  1. Search for pair-production of vector-like $T$ quarks decaying into a top quark and a spin-0 particle in the diphoton final state in proton proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    No excess is observed in a first ATLAS search for pair-produced vector-like T quarks decaying via an exotic spin-0 particle to diphotons; fiducial cross-section limits and a model exclusion up to m_T≈1620 GeV are set.

  2. Search for pair production of heavy resonances in final states with a photon and large-radius jets in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

    hep-ex 2026-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Using 138 fb^-1 of CMS data, the first tt-gamma-g channel search finds no excess and excludes spin-1/2 (spin-3/2) excited top quarks below 930 (1330) GeV.

  3. Triple top baryon $\Omega_{ttt}$

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The triple-top baryon Ωttt is predicted to have mass 513.58 GeV, binding energy 4.13 GeV, and a dominant W+W+W+bbb decay, with production cross sections too small to observe at near-future colliders.
