Triple-Top Signal of New Physics at the LHC
read the original abstract
We present leading-order (LO) cross sections for the production of three top quarks ($tt\tb$,$t\tb\tb$) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We find a total LO cross section for triple-top production in the Standard Model of $\sigma \approx 2 $ fb at $\sqrt{s}=14$ TeV and we give examples of two new physics models which have a significant enhancement to this channel. In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), there are regions of parameter space where the decays of gluino pairs into final states including three tops has a cross section $\sigma \approx 41$ fb. In a leptophobic $Z'$ model featuring right-handed couplings of the $u$-quark to the top, we find $\sigma \approx 28$ fb. With efficient identification and reconstruction of the top quarks, the triple-top signal could potentially provide evidence for new physics at the LHC.

Search for physics beyond the standard model in four and three top quark production events using proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV
CMS derives limits on six SMEFT Wilson coefficients, excludes topphilic resonances between 400-1600 GeV, and extracts the top Yukawa coupling from multi-lepton top events in 138 fb^{-1} of 13 TeV data.
