Abstract

We study the possibility of uniquely identifying the effects of graviton exchange from other new physics in high energy e^+e^- annihilation into fermion-pairs. For this purpose, we use as basic observable a specific asymmetry among integrated differential distributions, that seems particularly suitable to directly test for such gravitational effects in the data analysis.
