Description
The recent improved bounds on supersymmetric top partners are in tension with a natural cancelation of the large top loop contribution to the Higgs mass. We show that allowing for flavor mixing between the second and third squark generation allows to significantly weaken the bounds on their masses. This scenario gives rise to the flavor violating process pp -> tc+MET, which could easily be observed (or seriously constrained) in a dedicated analysis by Atlas and CMS.
