Description
We study the LHC phenomenology of the next-to-minimal model of gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking (NMGMSB), both for Run I and Run II. The strongest bound from searches for promptly decaying sparticles yields a lower limit on the gluino mass of 1080 GeV. Displaced bottom decays provide a challenging target. We show how a combination of prompt and displaced type cuts may be used to provide better search sensitivity.
