Prospects for discovering new gauge bosons, extra dimensions and contact interaction at the LHC

TL;DR

This paper reviews the potential for early discoveries of exotic physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHC, focusing on new gauge bosons, contact interactions, and extra dimensions during initial operation.

Contribution

It provides an overview of the prospects for detecting new physics phenomena at the LHC's early stages, emphasizing three key search areas.

Findings

LHC can explore the TeV energy region for new particles.

Early detection of exotic particles depends on their mass scale.

The paper discusses strategies for discovering new physics with initial LHC data.

Abstract

This talk is a review of possible discoveries of exotic not Standard Model Physics in the early stage of LHC (first two years), with the ATLAS and CMS experiments. LHC will be the first experiment ever to explore the TeV region and new exotic particles could be discovered at early stages of the LHC running if their masses are not too large. This talk is focused on three main search topics: new vector bosons, contact interaction and extra dimensions.
