A review of searches for physics beyond the Standard Model carried out at high energy leptonhadron and hadron-hadron facilities is presented, with emphasis on topics of interest for future data taking at the upgraded Tevatron pp̄ and HERA ep colliders. The status and discovery prospects are discussed for leptoquarks, Technicolour and supersymmetry, forbidden lepton and quark flavourchanging proc...

Hadron dynamics is formulated in terms of interacting composite strings. Consistent composite string model with extended Virasoro superconformal symmetry is found. These composite strings carry flavour and chiral degrees of freedom on edging two-dimensional surfaces. Necessary correct description of string amplitudes without states of negative norms in the spectrum of physical states is reached...

Transport equations for composite nucleons and deconfined quarks in quark-nuclear matter (QNM) are derived. QNM is a many-body system containing hadrons and deconfined quarks. The starting point is a microscopic quark-meson coupling (QMC) Hamiltonian with a density-dependent quark-quark interaction. An effective quark-hadron Hamiltonian containing canonical hadron and quark field operators is c...

Introduction: Radiotherapy with heavy charged particles such as protons and carbon ions (hadron therapy) has been recognized as an advanced technique for the treatment of various cancers. For some indications such as pediatric and radio-resistant tumors, it is considered the preferred method. However, despite its remarkable benefits, development of hadron therapy centers in the...

We study extensions of the standard model with a strongly coupled fourth generation. This occurs in models where electroweak symmetry breaking is triggered by the condensation of at least some of the fourth-generation fermions. With focus on the phenomenology at the LHC, we study the pair production of fourth-generation down quarks, D4. We consider the typical masses that could be associated wi...

The statistical limits on detectability of an anomalous chromomagnetic moment of a quark coupling to a gluon are projected to higher luminosities at the Tevatron at Fermilab, and to the LHC. They roughly scale as the energy, and are not strongly improved with increasing lumonisity. New interactions or composite structure can lead to anomalous magnetic moments for electromagnetic interactions an...

We discuss the possible signatures in the electroweak symmetry breaking sector by new strong dynamics at future hadron colliders such as the Tevatron upgrade, the LHC and VLHC, and e+e− linear colliders. Examples include a heavy Higgs-like scalar resonance, a heavy Technicolor-like vector resonance and pseudo-Goldstone states, non-resonance signatures via enhanced gauge-boson scattering and fer...
