We study the prospects for excluding or discovering vectorlike leptons using multilepton events at the LHC. We consider models in which the vectorlike leptons decay to tau leptons. If the vectorlike leptons are weak isosinglets, then…
We systematically study the possible signals at LHC of new vector-like quarks mainly coupled to the third generation. We consider heavy quarks T, B, X, Y of charges 2/3, -1/3, 5/3 and -4/3, respectively, in SU(2)_L isosinglets T_{L,R},…
