Discovery potential of Kaluza-Klein gluons at hadron colliders: A Snowmass whitepaper

TL;DR

This paper assesses the potential to discover Kaluza-Klein gluons as dijet resonances at various future and current hadron colliders, analyzing existing experimental bounds and future detection prospects.

Contribution

It provides a comprehensive analysis of the discovery reach for Kaluza-Klein gluons across multiple collider energies, including current experimental constraints and future prospects.

Findings

Current bounds from UA2, Tevatron, and LHC are summarized.

Discovery potential increases with collider energy, especially at 100 TeV.

Kaluza-Klein gluons could be detectable at future high-energy colliders.

Abstract

We investigate the discovery potential of Kaluza-Klein gluons as a dijet resonance at hadron colliders with different center-of-mass energies, from 14 TeV to 33 TeV to 100 TeV. We also present the current bounds from dijet searches at UA2, Tevatron, and LHC.
