Searches for extra spatial dimensions remain among the most popular new directions in our quest for physics beyond the Standard Model. High-energy collider experiments of the current decade should be able to find an ultimate answer to the…
In a nontrivial background geometry with extra dimensions, gravitational effects will depend on the shape of the Kaluza-Klein excitations of the graviton. We investigate a consistent scenario of this type with two positive tension…
We examine the axion model in the large extra dimensions scenario with TeV scale gravity. To obtain an intermediate-scale decay constant of the axion, the axion is assumed to live in a sub-spacetime (brane) of the whole bulk. In this model…
A search for physics beyond the standard model is performed using a sample of high-mass diphoton events produced in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV. The data sample was collected in 2016 with the CMS detector at the LHC and…

Kaluza-Klein (KK) gravitons emission rates due to plasmon-graviton conversion in magnetic field are computed within the ADD model of TeV-scale gravity. Plasma is described in the kinetic approach as the system of charged particles and…

Dijet production at the Tevatron including effects of virtual exchanges of spin-2 Kaluza-Klein modes in theories with large extra dimensions is considered. The experimental dijet mass and angular distribution are exploited to obtain…

We explore the capabilities of the LHC and the Linear Collider(LC) to distinguish the production of Kaluza-Klein(KK) excitations from an ordinary $Z'$ within the context of theories with TeV scale extra dimensions. At the LHC, these states…
