Finding Low-Scale Technicolor at Hadron Colliders


Abstract in English

In multiscale and topcolor-assisted models of walking technicolor, relatively light spin-one technihadrons $rho_T$ and $omega_T$ exist and are expected to decay as $rho_T to W pi_T, Z pi_T$ and $omega_T to gamma pi_T$. For $M_{rho_T} simeq 200 GeV$ and $M_{pi_T} simeq 100 GeV$, these processes have cross sections in the picobarn range in $bar p p$ colisions at the Tevatron and about 10 times larger at the Large Hadron Collider. We demonstrate their detectability with simulations appropriate to Run II conditions at the Tevatron.
