Searches for scalar top and scalar bottom quarks in e+e- interactions at 161 GeV ≤ √s ≤ 183 GeV

Searches for scalar top and scalar bottom quarks have been performed at center-of-mass energies between 161 GeV and 183 GeV using the L3 detector at LEP. No signal is observed. Model-independent limits on production cross sections are determined for the two decay channels <math><mtext>t&...
