Quantum Black Holes and their Lepton Signatures at the LHC with CalCHEP

TL;DR

This paper introduces a theoretical model for non-thermal quantum black holes interacting with Standard Model particles, implements it into CalcHEP, and explores their signatures at the LHC to set limits on fundamental parameters.

Contribution

It presents a novel non-local Lagrangian for QBH production, implemented into CalcHEP, enabling simulation of QBH events at colliders for the first time.

Findings

Simulated QBH signatures at LHC energies.

Set limits on Planck mass and extra dimensions.

Provided publicly available simulation tools.

Abstract

We discuss a field theoretical framework to describe the interactions of non-thermal quantum black holes (QBHs) with particles of the Standard Model. We propose a non-local Lagrangian to describe the production of these QBHs which is designed to reproduce the geometrical cross section for black hole production. This model is implemented into CalcHEP package and is publicly available at the High Energy Model Database (HEPMDB) for simulation of QBH events at the LHC and future colliders. We present the first phenomenological application of the QBH@HEPMDB model with spin-0 neutral QBH giving rise the $e^+e^-$ and $e\mu$ signatures at the LHC@8TeV and LHC@13TeV and produce the respective projections for the LHC in terms of limits on the reduced Planck mass and the number of the extra-dimensions.
