Description
Supersymmetric theories offer an elegant solution to the naturalness problem of the Standard
Model Higgs, constraining the mass of the superpartners of the third generation quarks,
the stop and the sbottom, to be below the TeV scale. This talk presents the status of the
ATLAS searches for stop and sbottom production in final states containing bottom quarks
and invisible particles. It first presents an overview of the searches that employ the full
statistics of 2012 LHC proton-proton collisions at \sqrt{s} = 8 TeV collected by the ATLAS
detector, including also new results from the \sqrt{s} = 13 TeV collisions data collected during
2015.
