Noncommutative Black Holes at the LHC

TL;DR

This paper discusses the current experimental status of noncommutative black holes at the LHC, highlighting their unique low transverse momentum signatures and proposing a search strategy using the ATLAS detector.

Contribution

It introduces the concept of noncommutative black holes as an untested TeV-scale gravity model with distinctive experimental signatures.

Findings

13 TeV LHC data shows no evidence of tested black hole models

Noncommutative black holes produce low transverse momentum particles

A proposed search strategy for charged noncommutative black holes

Abstract

Based on the latest public results, 13 TeV data from the Large Hadron Collider at CERN has not indicated any evidence of hitherto tested models of quantum black holes, semiclassical black holes, or string balls. Such models have predicted signatures of particles with high transverse momenta. Noncommutative black holes remain an untested model of TeV- scale gravity that offers the starkly different signature of particles with relatively low transverse momenta. Considerations for a search for charged noncommutative black holes using the ATLAS detector will be discussed.
