Excited quark production at a 100 TeV VLHC

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2013-09-06 v2

Abstract

I look for a dijet resonance produced by an excited quark q* in a simulated sample corresponding to 3 ab^{-1} of pp collisions at s=100\sqrt{s} = 100 TeV. Using a cut and count analysis approach I demonstrate the potential to explore q* masses up to 50 TeV, corresponding to a length scale of around 4 am.
