A unique signal of excited bosons in dijet data from pp-collisions

TL;DR

This paper proposes a novel signal for detecting excited bosons in dijet data from proton-proton collisions, highlighting a distinctive excess of events at specific rapidity differences away from the central region.

Contribution

It introduces a new observable signature of excited bosons in dijet events, differing from standard models which predict central jet production.

Findings

Excited bosons produce excess dijet events at specific rapidity differences.

The signal appears away from the central rapidity region, unlike other exotic models.

Potential for new physics discovery in collider data.

Abstract

With this note we would like to draw attention to a possible novel signal of new physics in dijet data at the hadron colliders. Usually it is accepted that all exotic models predict that these two jets populate the central (pseudo)rapidity region where y_{1,2} ~ 0. Contrary, the excited bosons do not contribute into this region, but produce an excess of dijet events over the almost flat QCD background in chi = exp|y_1-y_2| away from this region.
