DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Tanumoy Mandal\n\nSearches for vectorlike quarks at 
 the LHC have so far focused exclusively on their decays into Standard Mode
 l particles. However\, current experimental data permit the existence of a
  low-mass weak-singlet scalar or gauge boson. If such a singlet state coex
 ists with vectorlike top and bottom partners\, it opens up the possibility
  that these heavy quarks predominantly decay into the singlet and a third-
 generation Standard Model quark. Scenarios like this can naturally arise i
 n various frameworks\, such as composite Higgs models\, warped extra-dimen
 sional models\, and others. Despite this theoretical motivation\, such non
 -standard decay channels of vectorlike quarks remain largely unexplored in
  current experimental searches. In this talk\, I shall discuss some intere
 sting and unexplored signatures of the exotic decay of vectorlike quarks t
 hat is dominant in a large region of the not-so-fine-tuned parameter space
