N2  - A search for strongly produced supersymmetric particles using signatures involving multiple energetic jets and either two isolated same-sign leptons (\(e\) or \(µ\)), or at least three isolated leptons, is presented. The analysis relies on the identification of \(b\)-jets and high missing transverse momentum to achieve good sensitivity. A data sample of proton-proton collisions at \(\sqrt{s} = 13\) TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2015 and 2016, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb\(^{−1}\), is used for the search. No significant excess over the Standard Model prediction is observed. The results are interpreted in several simplified supersymmetric models featuring \(R\)-parity conservation or \(R\)-parity violation, extending the exclusion limits from previous searches. In models considering gluino pair production, gluino masses are excluded up to 1.87 TeV at 95% confidence level. When bottom squarks are pair-produced and decay to a chargino and a top quark, models with bottom squark masses below 700 GeV and light neutralinos are excluded at 95% confidence level. In addition, model-independent limits are set on a possible contribution of new phenomena to the signal region yields.
