Exclusion limits are placed in terms of the top-squark and neutralino masses. Assuming a branching ratio of 100\% to \(t\tilde{χ}^0_1\), top-squark masses in the range 450-1000 GeV are excluded for \(\tilde{χ}^0_1\) masses below 160 GeV. In the case where \(m_{\tilde{t}_1}\) ∼ \(m_t\) + \(m_{\tilde{χ}^0_1}\), top-squark masses in the range 235-590 GeV are excluded.}, language = {en} } @misc{OPUS4-15355, title = {Jahresbericht 2016 des Rechenzentrums der Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, edition = {1.
