Large compact dimensions and high energy experimentsSREERUP RAYCHAUDHURI Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur 208 016, India Abstract. Models of spacetime with extra compact dimensions and having the Standard Model fields confined to a narrow slice of 4-dimensional spacetime can have strong gravitational effects at the TeV scale as well as electroweak-strength interactions at present-day colliders. Phenomenological consequences of such models are reviewed, with special emphasis on collider signatures. Keywords. Extra dimensions; Kaluza-Klein; graviton. Pacs No. 11.10.Kk; 11.25.Mj; 12.90.+b |
