SummaryFCNC Higgs decays:

Squark contributions may be much larger than in SMPut constraints on NMFVComplementary to low-energy observables (b s)

Extensive study of squarks/gauginos in NMFV:All squared helicity amplitudes for production and decay knownAllowed regions of NMFV parameter space 4 benchmark pointsLevel reordering flavour changes big cross section variations

(Light) stops:Motivated by cosmologyLarge production cross sectionsGood identification (SS leptons, b-tagging, displaced vertices) Can involve FCNC (t1 c1) sensitive to NMFV
