We argue for the plausibility of a broad class of vectorlike confining gauge theories at the TeV scale which interact with the Standard Model predominantly via gauge interactions. These theories have a rich phenomenology at the LHC if…
Various theories beyond the Standard Model predict unusual signatures, including new, long-lived particles decaying at a significant distance from the collision point. These unique signatures are difficult to reconstruct and face unusual…
