R-parity violation and 8 TeV four-jet events at the LHC
arXiv:2509.09062 · doi:10.1103/f8b3-bjnk
Abstract
The CMS Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has observed two four-jet events with a total invariant mass of about 8 TeV; within each event, the jets can be paired into two dijets with invariant masses of 2 TeV each. These are extremely rare events due to the large invariant mass, which implies a very small QCD background, as well as to the di-jet structure, which makes it prone to an interpretation in terms of a heavy resonance decaying into two lighter ones. We investigate the possible interpretation of these events in terms of supersymmetry with a single baryon-number and R-Parity violating term. In this particular scenario, the lighter resonances are identified with the right-handed squarks of the first generation, while the heavy one is interpreted in terms of a down-squark of the second or third generation. We discuss the constraints that shape this interpretation and outline a well-defined scenario for its realization. The resulting predictions can be scrutinized with forthcoming LHC data.
