We present a general procedure to decompose Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) collider signatures presenting a Z2 symmetry into Simplified Model Spectrum (SMS) topologies. Our method provides a way to cast BSM predictions for the LHC in a model independent framework, which can be directly confronted with the relevant experimental constraints. Our concrete implementation currently focusses on supersymmetry searches with missing energy, for which a large variety of SMS results from ATLAS and CMS are available. As show-case examples we apply our procedure to two scans of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. We discuss how the SMS limits constrain various particle masses and which regions of parameter space remain unchallenged by the current SMS interpretations of the LHC results.

  1. Symbolic Classification-Enabled LHC Limits Online BSM Global Fits

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Symbolic regression produces an approximate classifier for LHC exclusion limits that enables their direct inclusion during pMSSM global fits.

  2. Deciphering compressed electroweakino excesses with MadAnalysis 5

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    MadAnalysis 5 v1.11 adds efficiency-table handling, reference-frame observables, and statistical tools, then applies them to two ATLAS Run-2 analyses of compressed electroweakino signatures inside the NMSSM.

  3. On the coverage of electroweak-inos within the pMSSM with SModelS -- a comparison with the ATLAS pMSSM study

    hep-ph 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    SModelS v3.0 largely reproduces ATLAS pMSSM electroweak-ino constraints, with CMS inclusion and combinations tightening limits but leaving some light ino parameter space viable.
