We discuss the physics of Kaluza-Klein excitations of the Standard Model gauge bosons that can be explored by a high energy muon collider in the era after the LHC and TeV Linear Collider. We demonstrate that the muon collider is a necessary ingredient in the unraveling the properties of such states and, perhaps, proving their existence. The possibility of observing the resonances associated wit...

I discuss the exciting prospects for exploring a wide range of new physics at a low-energy muon collider. The physics possibilities for muon colliders (μC’s) are enormous. An incomplete list includes: front-end physics; Z physics; Higgs physics, especially s-channel factory production; precision mW , mt measurements; deep-inelastic physics, including lepto-quarks and contact interactions; super...

The muon-proton (μp) collider is an interesting option of the muon collider. Here we discuss the physics potential of the μp collider; especially, leptoquarks and contact interactions. We calculate the sensitivity reach for the second generation leptoquarks and leptogluons, R-parity violating squarks, and μq contact interactions for the μp colliders of various energies and luminosities. INTRODU...
