Concerning new physics beyond the Standard Model we explore the discovery and analysis potentials of polarized (hadronic) experiments and we compare with the unpolarized case. For discovery, beam polarization is helpful in the case of purely hadronic new interactions. In any case, beam polarization provides us a unique piece of information on the chiral and flavour structures.
We present a collection of signatures for physics beyond the standard model that need to be explored at the LHC. First, are presented various tools developed to measure new particle masses in scenarios where all decays include an unobservable particle. Second, various aspects of supersymmetric models are discussed. Third, some signatures of models of strong electroweak symmetry are discussed. In the fourth part, a special attention is devoted to high mass resonances, as the ones appearing in models with warped extra dimensions. Finally, prospects for models with a hidden sector/valley are presented. Our report, which includes brief experimental and theoretical reviews as well as original results, summarizes the activities of the New Physics working group for the Physics at TeV Colliders workshop (Les Houches, France, 8-26 June, 2009).
We present a collection of signatures for physics beyond the standard model that need to be explored at the LHC. The signatures are organized according to the experimental objects that appear in the final state, and in particular the number of high pT leptons. Our report, which includes brief experimental and theoretical reviews as well as original results, summarizes the activities of the New Physics working group for the Physics at TeV Colliders workshop (Les Houches, France, 11-29 June, 2007).
This report presents the activities of the `New Physics working group for the `Physics at TeV Colliders workshop (Les Houches, France, 10--28 June, 2019). These activities include studies of direct searches for new physics, approaches to exploit published data to constrain new physics, as well as the development of tools to further facilitate these investigations. Benefits of machine learning for both the search for new physics and the interpretation of these searches are also presented.
We present the activities of the New Physics working group for the Physics at TeV Colliders workshop (Les Houches, France, 3--21 June, 2013). Our report includes new computational tool developments, studies of the implications of the Higgs boson discovery on new physics, important signatures for searches for natural new physics at the LHC, new studies of flavour aspects of new physics, and assessments of the interplay between direct dark matter searches and the LHC.
We present the activities of the New Physics working group for the Physics at TeV Colliders workshop (Les Houches, France, 30 May-17 June, 2011). Our report includes new agreements on formats for interfaces between computational tools, new tool developments, important signatures for searches at the LHC, recommendations for presentation of LHC search results, as well as additional phenomenological studies.
