- Identified allowed parameter regions respecting experimental constraints
- Proposed benchmark scenarios for future collider studies
- Discussed potential LHC signatures of squark flavor mixing

## Abstract

We present an extensive study of the MSSM parameter space allowing for general generation mixing in the squark sector. Employing an MCMC algorithm, we establish the parameter ranges which are allowed with respect to various experimental and theoretical constraints. Based on this analysis, we propose benchmark scenarios for future studies. Moreover, we discuss aspects of signatures at the LHC.
