Description

Naturalness arguments for weak-scale supersymmetry prefer the superpartners of
the third generation quarks (stop and sbottom) with masses close to the
electroweak scale, which can be produced at the LHC. This talk presents recent
CMS results from searches for direct stop and sbottom pair production, using
data collected in proton-proton collisions, at a center-of-mass energy of 13
TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36/fb.
