“Exotic” Physics : Why ? The SM describes experimental measurement very well, but raises crucial questions In the SM, EW symmetry breaking is responsible for giving rise to massive particles. The broken symmetry arises from a Higgs scalar field. Where/what is the Higgs boson ? Is it a fundamental scalar field? Or is the symmetry broken through a dynamical interaction ? topcolor unobserved Higgs boson technicolor (H→ qTqT) Technicolor H→ qTqT Supersymmetry Hierarchy problem MEW << MPl ? “Little” hierarchy Extra-dimensions • Questions which the SM (or SM + SUSY) does not answer : • “Replication” of three families ? • Particle masses & their hierarchy ? Compositeness ? Superstrings ? Extra-dimensions ? IOP HEPP Conference, Dublin March 2005 Dynamical Breaking of EW excited electrons: the hierarchical structure of the SM fermion families could be taken as an indication of quark and lepton substructure. One would therefore expect excited states of q’s and l’s to be produced in high energy collisions In a compositeness model, the new, strong interactions that binds the constituents (preons) may be expected to produce excited electrons strongly, with fairly large cross-sections. The Standard Model of electroweak and strong interactions continues to describe experimental measurement very well. In the Standard Model, electroweak symmetry breaking is responsible for giving rise to massive particles. The broken symmetry arises from a Higgs scalar filed and as yet unobserved Higgs boson. An alternative explanation for the broken symmetry is through a dynamical interaction known as technicolor, where the Higgs boson is replace by states of two techniquarks, called technipions, bounds by the technicolor force. A recent walking technicolor model predicts color singlet technirho production in high energy PbarP collisions throught a s-channel qbarq annihilation. This technirho can decay to technipions and to bosons , with a relatively high production cross section.

Signature GMSB can produce gg and large MEt. • MET is common signature for SUSY signals because it could indicate the escape of a non-interacting SUSY particle (like LSP) from the particle detector. • The LSP signals are of particular interest, as they provide a natural explanation for the "Dark Matter“. ~ *See ‘New Physics’ parallel session for more detailed description of SUSY and SUSY searches. IOP HEPP Conference, Dublin March 2005 • In Supersymmetry (SUSY) theory, which introduces a new symmetry between fundamental particles, Gauge-Mediated SUSY Breaking models (with gauge interactions communicating the symmetry breaking) can produce events which decay down to the lightest neutralino into the photon and gravitino, the SUSY partner of the graviton, where gravitino is the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP). GMSB can produce a final state of two photons and large unbalanced (missing) transverse energy MET. MET is often used as a pointer to possible SUSY signals because it could indicate the escape of a non-interacting SUSY particle (like LSP) from the particle detector. The LSP signals are of particular interest, as they provide a natural explanation for the "Dark Matter", known to pervade our universe, and help us to understand the fundamental connection between particle physics and cosmology.

HW Searches qq→W±H→W±W*W*→l±l±n Signature high-pT isolated like-sign (LS) dilepton events Event Selection pT2>16 (18) GeV/c and pT12 >35 GeV/c for the MH <160 GeV/c2 (>160 GeV/c2) IOP HEPP Conference, Dublin March 2005 • We search for neutral Higgs production associated with the W boson using high-pT isolated like-sign (LS) dilepton events in the 193.5 pb^-1 CDF Run II data. We first study the background components in our base-line like-sign sample which is created by requiring the leading lepton p_T > 20 GeV/c and the second lepton p_T > 6 GeV/c, and confirm that, overall, the entire sample is consistent with out background expectation. Based on the S/sqrt{B} calculated from signal Monte Carlo's and our background expectation, the signal region is then determined in the plane of the second lepton p_T (p_T2) versus the vector sum of p_T's of the two leptons(p_T12). The signal region is p_T2 > 16 (18) GeV/c and p_T12 > 35 GeV/c for the Higgs masses < 160 GeV/c**2 (> 160 GeV/c**2). No event is found, while the total background is expected to be 0.95 +- 0.61(stat) +- 0.18(syst) events, the 110 GeV/c**2 bosophilic (fermiophobic) Higgs to be about 0.06 events assuming the same production cross section as the Standard Model Higgs, and the 160 GeV/c**2 Standard Model Higgs to be about 0.03 events. We set cross section upper limits sigma(WH) * BR(H->WW) < 12 pb at 95% C.L. for the 110 GeV/c**2 Higgs and 8 pb for the 160 GeV/c**2 Higgs. The analysis is structured from simple techniques only: conventional isolation, high-p_T lepton identification, and simple kinematical requirements to define the signal region. There are no signal-specific cuts such as missing E_T and other topological cuts. The present result therefore provides a conservative physics interpretation. In base sample: confirm that, overall, the entire sample is consistent with out background expectation

Very little background 3 candidate events The excited fermions also have gauge interactions. If the decay via gauge interactions dominates the total width, the e* can be detected as a narrow egamma mass resonance. 344 GeV IOP HEPP Conference, Dublin March 2005 • This signature based search with a resonance in the e gamma channel is geared toward the production of excited or exotic electron as in the following reaction p + pbar --> e* + e --> e gamma + e. Excited electrons are expected in many compositeness models. We use a model for excited fermions based on their coupling to quarks and leptons via contact interaction that is described by an effective four-fermion Lagrangian (Baur, U. Phys Rev D 42, 3). The cross section for this model depends on both the e* mass and the compositeness scale, Lambda. In both models the cross section depends on both the e* mass and the compositeness scale, Lambda. Model dependent acceptances here for each model Interpretation of limit Excited electrons are expected in many compositeness models. Model 1: based on excited fermions coupling to quarks and leptons via contact interaction, described by an effective four-fermion Lagrangian (Baur, U. Phys Rev D 42, 3). Model 2: excited electrons produced via gauge mediated interaction (Baur, U. Phys Rev D 42, 3).
