Description
Vector-Like Quarks (VLQs) appear in many models of new physics. Unlike SM chiral quarks, which only have left-handed charged currents, VLQs have both right and left-handed charged currents while still transforming the same way under SM gauge groups. Searches were performed during the LHC Run I for the VLQ partners of the top and bottom quarks, the T’ and B’. The T’ and B’ are pair-produced and decay to tH and bH, respectively. No VLQs were observed during Run I. The most recent limits for these channels will be presented. A first look at searches for singly and pair produced VLQs in the LHC Run II will also be shown.
