TY - JOUR AU - Miralles, V. AU - Pich, A. PY - 2019 DA - 2019// TI - LHC bounds on colored scalars T2 - Phys. Rev. D JO - Physical Review D SP - 115042 EP - 11pp VL - 100 IS - 11 PB - Amer Physical Soc AB - We analyze the constraints on colored scalar bosons imposed by the current LHC data at root s = 13 TeV. Specifically, we consider an additional electroweak doublet of color-octet scalars, satisfying the principle of minimal flavor violation in order to fulfill the stringent experimental limits on flavor-changing neutral currents. We demonstrate that colored scalars with masses below 800 GeV are already excluded, provided they are not fermiophobic.
