Expected and observed exclusion contours at 95% confidence level in the plane of the long-lived particle's mass and proper lifetime, for $\tilde{t}\bar{\tilde{t}}$ pair production with $L$-violating $\lambda'_{233}$ decays. A triangular interpolation scheme between simulated and lifetime-reweighted points is used to obtain a smooth contour. The triangulation is done linearly in mass, and logarithmically in lifetime and signal strength. Additional smoothing using a Gaussian kernel is applied to the observed limit contour to reduce artifacts from the interpolation.
