The search for physics beyond the Standard Model includes Technicolor particles, Higgs Bosons, compositeness, many variations of Supersymmetry, large extra dimensions, model-independent searches for anomalies, and other topics. This article reports a subset of these ongoing searches at the high-energy colliders, Tevatron, HERA and LEP.

Recent searches for physics beyond the Standard Model at high energy colliders are presented. The main focus is on searches for supersymmetry, extra dimensions and new gauge bosons. In all search analyses the data are found to agree well with the Standard Model background expectation and no evidence for contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model is found. The data are thus used to place limits on new physics scenarios.

We first discuss the problem of mass hierarchy and review briefly the main Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) proposals. We then describe the framework of strings, branes and large extra dimensions and give the main experimental predictions in both particle accelerators and microgravity experiments testing gravity at short distances. Finally, we present some models based on intersecting branes and discuss the issue of Standard Model embedding.

Recent searches for physics beyond the Standard Model at high-energy colliders are reviewed, with emphasis on supersymmetry, additional space dimensions, extra gauge bosons, leptoquarks and model-independent searches. The results reported are based on data samples of up to 0.5 and 2.5 fb -1 collected at HERA and at the Tevatron, respectively.

Monojet events consist in event topologies with a high transverse momentum jet and a large amount of missing transverse energy. They constitute a promising final state that could lead to phenomena beyond the Standard Model. The theoretical models giving rise to such a signature include the pair production of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles, as dark matter candidates, and models of large extra dimensions. Monojet events can even be used to measure the Standard Model properties of Z boson decays, provided that the precision of the analysis is high enough. Such precision can be achieved by using data-driven determinations of the Standard Model contributions to monojet events. Exotics searches for new physics in such a final state have been performed at all high energy hadronic collider experiments since SPS. The ATLAS and CMS analyses with 7 TeV LHC data provide the latest and most useful information obtained from monojet studies. Their results are presented and discussed in this review paper.

A brief review of searches for physics beyond the Standard Model using single- and multi-photon events with missing energy at LEP is given here. These include searches for supersymmetry, large extra dimensions, and anomalous neutrino production. Recent results from all four LEP experiments are presented, including improved limits on the new scale of gravity for models with large extra dimensions and the most precise direct measurement of the number of light neutrino species. Status and prospects of the LEP combined searches are also discussed.

Recent results for direct searches for physics beyond the Standard Model are reviewed. The results include Tevatron II data up to 1.2 fb-1 and HERA results up to 350 pb-1. Searches for Supersymmetry, for compositeness and for large extra dimensions are presented. The excess of events with an isolated lepton and high missing transverse momentum at HERA is discussed.

Abstract In this paper we consider the decay D+ → π+ℓ+ℓ−, addressing in particular the resonance contributions as well as the relatively large contributions from the weak annihilation diagrams. For the weak annihilation diagrams we include known results from QCD factorisation at low q2 and at high q2, adapting the existing calculation for B decays in the Operator Product Expansion. The hadronic resonance contributions are obtained through a dispersion relation, modelling the spectral functions as towers of Regge-like resonances in each channel, as suggested by Shifman, imposing the partonic behaviour in the deep Euclidean. The parameters of the model are extracted using e+e− → (hadrons) and τ → (hadrons) + ντ data as well as the branching ratios for the resonant decays D+ → π+R(R → ℓ+ℓ−), with R = ρ, ω, and ϕ. We perform a thorough error analysis, and present our results for the Standard Model differential branching ratio as a function of q2. Focusing then on the observables FH and AFB, we consider the sensitivity of this channel to effects of physics beyond the Standard Model, both in a model independent way and for the case of leptoquarks.

Abstract It is not only conceivable but likely that the spectrum of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) is non-degenerate. The lightest non-SM particle may reside close enough to the electroweak scale that it can be kinematically probed at high-energy experiments and on account of this, it must be included as an infrared (IR) degree of freedom (DOF) along with the SM ones. The rest of the non-SM particles are heavy enough to be directly experimentally inaccessible and can be integrated out. Now, to capture the effects of the complete theory, one must take into account the higher dimensional operators constituted of the SM DOFs and the minimal extension. This construction, BSMEFT, is in the same spirit as SMEFT but now with extra IR DOFs. Constructing a BSMEFT is in general the first step after establishing experimental evidence for a new particle. We have investigated three different scenarios where the SM is extended by additional (i) uncolored, (ii) colored particles, and (iii) abelian gauge symmetries. For each such scenario, we have included the most-anticipated and phenomenologically motivated models to demonstrate the concept of BSMEFT. In this paper, we have provided the full EFT Lagrangian for each such model up to mass dimension 6. We have also identified the CP, baryon (B), and lepton (L) number violating effective operators.

We present a quasi-model-independent search for physics beyond the standard model. We define final states to be studied, and construct a rule that identifies a set of variables appropriate for any particular final state. A new algorithm ("Sleuth") searches for regions of excess in the space of those variables and quantifies the significance of any detected excess. After demonstrating the sensititvity of the method, we apply it to the semi-inclusive channel eμX collected in ≈108 pb -1 of [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] at the DØ experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. We find no evidence of new high pT physics in this sample.
