Probing Extra Dimensions with ATLAS
نویسنده
چکیده
In the late nineties several authors suggested that the extra dimensions predicted by string theory might lead to observable effects at high energy colliders. The ATLAS experiment which will start taking data at the LHC in 2007 will be an excellent place to search for such effects. The sensitivity of ATLAS to signatures of Extra Dimensions will be presented.

Searches for Dark Matter and Large Extra Dimensions in Monojet Final States with the ATLAS Experiment
This thesis presents searches for evidence for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and Extra Dimensions in proton-proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The WIMP is one of the main candidates to constitute the particle content of Dark Matter. Extra Dimensions are introduced in several theories in order to explain the apparent weaknes...
متن کاملExtra dimensions and micro black holes at the LHC
We present recent studies of the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations on the potential to discover extra dimensions and microscopic black holes in the forthcoming 2009-10 LHC run. We show that there is a good chance that with an integrated luminosity of ∼ 100 pb −1 accumulated at a center-of-mass energy of 10 TeV the searches for such new physics will be extended beyond the existing limits. Extra dimen...
متن کاملModel Independent Extra - dimension signatures with ATLAS ∗
The generic missing transverse energy signals at LHC for theories having large extra dimensions are discussed. Final states of jets plus missing energy and photons plus missing energy are simulated in the ATLAS detector. The discovery limit of LHC and the methods to determine the parameters of the underlying model are discussed.
متن کاملSearch for Extra Dimensions at LHC
Some of the studies performed by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations to establish the future sensitivity of the experiments to extra dimension signals are reviewed. The discrimination of those signals from other new physics signals and the extraction of the underlying parameters of the extra dimension models are discussed.
