The paper
Abstract
We study the production and decay of a scalar \stst\ bound state \sigst\ at hadron supercolliders, where \st\ is the lighter stop eigenstate. If \st\ has no tree–level 2–body decays, the dominant decay modes of \sigst\ are gg or, if $m_h < \mst \ll \mstt$, a pair of light scalar Higgs bosons h. Nevertheless the branching ratio into two photons is often large enough to yield a detectable signal.
The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

In [ref] we computed the bound state annihilation signals, at leading order and in the Coulomb approximation, for a variety of particles.[For other studies of bound state phenomenology at the LHC, see [ref] .] Here we update our work to include the results of the 8 TeV and the early 13 TeV searches by ATLAS and CMS.

A resonant $γγ$ signal can also arise within the MSSM from the annihilation of a squark-antisquark near-threshold QCD bound state, most famously the stoponium [ref] .

We will now analyze to what extent the bound state signals discussed in the previous sections will be detectable at the LHC.[LHC signals of gluinonium have been also studied in [ref] and squarkonium in [ref] .] To that end, it is informative to consider the existing experimental constraints on the masses of the various UED and MSSM particles.
