It is pointed out in a class of models with large extra dimensions that the cross-section of processes with virtual Kaluza–Klein graviton exchanges becomes either much smaller or much larger by many orders of magnitude than what is expected from that of the on-shell production of the Kaluza–Klein gravitons. We demonstrate how the problem arises using a toy model. The cause of this new problem lies in the fact that we do not have momentum conservation in the extra dimensions. To search for the signal of the large extra dimensions with high energy collider experiments, we need more care in interpreting the earlier results on the cross-sections of these processes.

We investigate the possible large extra dimensions (LED) effects induced by the Kaluza–Klein (KK) gravitons up to the QCD next-to-leading order (NLO) on ZZW production at the large hadron collider (LHC). The integrated cross-sections and some kinematic distributions are presented in both the Standard Model (SM) and the LED model. The numerical results demonstrate that the NLO QCD corrections are sizeable and remarkably reduce the leading order (LO) LED effect depending strongly on the phase space. The NLO LED relative discrepancies of the total cross-section could become sizable for the ZZW production, if we apply proper event selection criteria. We find that the LO result overestimates the LED effect and is insufficient to provide a believable theoretical prediction.

Abstract Using modern multiloop calculation methods, we derive the analytical expressions for the total cross sections of the processes e−γ →$$ {e}^{-}X\overline{X} $$ e − X X ¯ with X = μ, γ or e at arbitrary energies. For the first two processes our results are expressed via classical polylogarithms. The cross section of e−γ → e−e−e+ is represented as a one-fold integral of complete elliptic integral K and logarithms. Using our results, we calculate the threshold and high-energy asymptotics and compare them with available results.

A review is given of the measurements of the diffractive process in recent years from two high-energy colliders, the HERA ep collider and the Tevatron [Formula: see text] collider. The energy dependence of the cross sections and the factorisation properties of diffractive processes are discussed.

We consider a compactification of extra dimensions and numerically calculate Casimir energy which is provided by the mass of Kaluza–Klein modes. For the extra space we consider a torus with shape moduli and show that the corresponding vacuum energy is represented as a function of the moduli parameter of the extra dimensions. By assuming that the Casimir energy may be identified with cosmological constant, we evaluate the size of extra dimensions in terms of the recent data given by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) measurement and the supernovae observations. We suggest that the observed cosmological constant may probe the shape moduli of the extra space by the study of the Casimir energy of the compactified extra dimensions.

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.

We establish explicit analytic expressions for the e+e− → W+W− cross sections, asymmetries and W± spin density matrix elements in terms of the complete set of anomalous three-boson couplings. This should be useful for performing a model-independent analysis of LEP 2 or future high energy collider data. Sensitivities to the various three-boson couplings are discussed and possible ways to disentangle their effects are proposed.
