This chapter of the "Flavor in era LHC" workshop report discusses flavor-related issues production and decays heavy states at LHC high momentum transfer Q, both from experimental theoretical perspective. We review top quark physics, discuss flavor aspects several extensions standard model, such as supersymmetry, little Higgs models or with extra dimensions. includes discovery aspects, well measurement properties these states. also present publicly available computational tools related to this topic.
We perform an indirect search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) using the MACRO detector to look neutrino-induced upward-going muons resulting from annihilation of WIMPs trapped in Sun and Earth. The is conducted various angular cones centered on Earth accommodate a range WIMP masses. No significant excess over background atmospheric neutrinos seen limits are placed muon fluxes These used constrain neutralino particle parameters supersymmetric theory, including those suggested...
The work contained herein constitutes a report of the ``Beyond Standard Model'' working group for Workshop "Physics at TeV Colliders", Les Houches, France, 26 May--6 June, 2003. research presented is original, and was performed specifically workshop. Tools calculations in minimal supersymmetric standard model are presented, including comparison dark matter relic density predicted by public codes. Reconstruction particle masses LHC future linear collider facility examined. Less orthodox...
We present a collection of signatures for physics beyond the standard model that need to be explored at LHC. First, are presented various tools developed measure new particle masses in scenarios where all decays include an unobservable particle. Second, aspects supersymmetric models discussed. Third, some strong electroweak symmetry In fourth part, special attention is devoted high mass resonances, as ones appearing with warped extra dimensions. Finally, prospects hidden sector/valley...
We present a measurement of the underground decoherence function using multi-muon events observed in MACRO detector at Gran Sasso an average depth $3800 \mathrm{hg}/{\mathrm{cm}}^{2}.$ Muon pair separations up to 70 m have been measured, corresponding parent mesons with ${P}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}<~1$--$2 \mathrm{GeV}/c.$ Improved selection criteria are used reduce effects mainly low distance separation region muon pairs. Special care is given new unfolding procedure designed minimize...
The Large Hadron Collider at CERN will start data acquisition in 2007. ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC Apparatus) experiment is preparing for the handling and analysis via a series of Data Challenges production exercises to validate its computing model provide useful samples detector physics studies. last Challenge, begun June 2004 ended early 2005, was first performed completely Grid environment. Immediately afterwards, new activity necessary order event workshop, taking place 2005 Rome. This...
A small set of final prototypes the ATLAS Inner Detector silicon tracking system (Pixel and SemiConductor Tracker), were used to take data during 2004 Combined Test Beam. Data collected from runs with beams different flavour (electrons, pions, muons photons) a momentum range 2 180 GeV/c. Four independent methods align modules. The corrections obtained validated using known momenta beam particles shown yield consistent results among alignment approaches. From residual distributions, it is...
We present a bibliography compilation on magnetic monopoles updated to include references till the end of year 1999. It is intended contain nearly all experimental papers subject and only theoretical which have some specific implications.
We study the complementarity between indirect detection of dark matter with $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-rays in H.E.S.S. and supersymmetry searches ATLAS at Large Hadron Collider (LHC) focus point region within mSUGRA framework. The sensitivity central telescope II experiment an energy threshold $\ensuremath{\sim}20\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$ is investigated. show that $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray fluxes $\mathcal{O}({10}^{\ensuremath{-}12})\text{ }{\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}2}\text{...
Silicon pixel detectors produced according to the ATLAS Pixel Detector design were tested in a beam at CERN framework of collaboration. The used n+/n sensors with oxygenated silicon substrates. experimental behaviour after irradiation 1.1 10**15 n_eq/cm**2 and 600 kGy is discussed. At sensor bias voltage V depleted depth measured be 229 um, mean collected charge 20000 electrons, detection efficiency 98.2% spatial resolution 9.6 um
Abstract An experimental setup to investigate ion channeling in the hundreds MeV/u energy range is described. A short bent crystal, aligned incoming beam by an angular actuator, should deflect ions into a single plane pixel detector used identify channeled and unchanneled particles. In order enhance footprint of on recorded signals, particle emittance tailored crystalline acceptance means massive collimators. Numerical simulations low carbon are performed with FLUKA fully understand...
