Heavy Flavor Simplified Models at the LHC

JHEP 01 (2012) 074

Develops a comprehensive set of simplified models for LHC final states with top and bottom quarks, optimizing search strategies for pair-produced color octets and triplets, and providing benchmarks that ensure optimal coverage of heavy flavor new physics.

Simplified Models for LHC New Physics Searches

J. Phys. G 39 (2012) 105005

A systematic catalog of simplified models for new-physics searches at the LHC, defining minimal effective Lagrangians with few new particles whose masses and cross-sections map directly to observable quantities. Output of the SLAC workshop on Topologies for Early LHC Searches.
