abstract = {Results are reported from a search for the production of three-jet resonances in pp collisions at a center- of-mass energy √s = 7 TeV. The study uses the data sample collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2011, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb?1. Events with high jet multiplicity and a large scalar sum of jet transverse momenta are analyzed for the presence of resonances in the three-jet invariant mass spectrum. No evidence for a narrow resonance is found in the data, and limits are set on the cross section for gluino pair production in an R-parity-violating supersymmetry model, for gluino masses greater than 280 GeV. Assuming a branching fraction for gluino decay into three jets of 100%, gluino masses below 460 GeV are excluded at 95% confidence level. These results significantly extend the range of previous limits.},

Observed and expected 95% CL upper limits on the cross section times  branching fraction for gluino pair production followed by RPV decay of each gluino  to three light-flavored quark jets. Also shown are the ±1σ and ±2σ bands on the  expected limit, as well as the theoretical LO and NLO cross sections for gluino production,  assuming a branching fraction of a gluino decay into three jets of 100%.  from BMWF and FWF (Austria); FNRS and FWO (Belgium); CNPq,  CAPES, FAPERJ, and FAPESP (Brazil); MES (Bulgaria); CERN; CAS,  MoST, and NSFC (China); COLCIENCIAS (Colombia); MSES (Croatia);  RPF (Cyprus); MEYS (Czech Republic); MoER, SF0690030s09  and ERDF (Estonia); Academy of Finland, MEC, and HIP (Finland);  CEA and CNRS/IN2P3 (France); BMBF, DFG, and HGF (Germany);  GSRT (Greece); OTKA and NKTH (Hungary); DAE and DST (India);  IPM (Iran); SFI (Ireland); INFN (Italy); NRF and WCU (Republic of  Korea); LAS (Lithuania); CINVESTAV, CONACYT, SEP, and UASLPFAI  (Mexico); MSI (New Zealand); PAEC (Pakistan); MSHE and NSC  (Poland); FCT (Portugal); JINR (Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Ukraine,  Uzbekistan); MON, RosAtom, RAS and RFBR (Russia); MSTD (Serbia);  SEIDI and CPAN (Spain); Swiss Funding Agencies (Switzerland);  NSC (Taipei); TUBITAK and TAEK (Turkey); NASU (Ukraine);  STFC (United Kingdom); DOE and NSF (USA).
