An inclusive search for supersymmetry in final states with jets and
missing transverse momentum is performed in proton-proton collisions
at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. A data sample with an
integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb-1 recorded by the CMS detector in
2016 at the CERN LHC is analysed. The observed signal candidate
event counts are found to be in agreement with the standard model
expectation. Within the context of simplified models, the masses of
promptly decaying bottom, top and mass-degenerate light-flavour
squarks are excluded at 95% confidence level up to 1050, 1000 and
1325 GeV, respectively. The gluino mass is excluded up to 1900,
1650 and 1650 GeV for a gluino decaying promptly via the aforementioned
squarks. The result is also interpreted in the context of
simplified models of split supersymmetry. Lower limits are placed
on the mass of a long-lived gluino for a wide range of lifetimes.
Gluino masses up to 1750 and 900 GeV are excluded for gluinos
with a lifetime of 1 mm and metastable gluinos, respectively. These
results provide complementary coverage to dedicated searches for
long-lived particles at the LHC.
