Search for top-squark pairs decaying into Higgs or Z bosons in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV

A search for supersymmetry through the direct pair production of top squarks, with Higgs (H) or Z bosons in the decay chain, is performed using a data sample of proton–proton collisions at √s=8 TeV collected in 2012 with the CMS detector at the LHC. The sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity...
