We constrain the parameters of dynamical torsion, namely, the torsion-fermion coupling and the torsion mass, by making a careful analysis of current LEP-2 data at several energies, as well as CDF and D0 data from Run-I of the Tevatron. We…
We derive model-independent constraints on four-fermion contact interaction-type dynamics from the published preliminary LEP2 experimental data on e^+e^- annihilation into \mu^+\mu^- and \tau^+\tau^- pairs, measured at different energies…
From non-observation at LEP1, a lower mass limit of 45 GeV has been established on any additional sequential fermion beyond the three generations. Precision measurements have further constrained the number of such additional generations,…
A search for physics beyond the Standard Model in neutral current deep inelastic scattering at high negative four-momentum transfer squared Q^2 is performed in e^{\pm}p collisions at HERA. The differential cross section ds/dQ^2, measured…
For the first time the experiments ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL have presented preliminary results for fermion-pair and photon-pair production in e+e- collisions on the full LEP2 data set. The details of the experimental measurements and…
We show that the accumulated LEP-II data taken at $\sqrt{s} =$ 130 to 206 GeV can establish more restrictive bounds on doubly charged bileptons couplings and masses than any other experiment so far. We also analyze the discovery potential…
Preliminary results of measurements of fermion-pair production at LEP2 are used to derive limits on new physics phenomena. Combinations of the cross sections and asymmetrie of the 4 LEP collaborations are interpreted in terms four-fermion…
5D models with one 3D brane and one infinite extra dimension are studied. Matter is confined to the brane, gravity extends to the bulk. Models with positive and negative tension of the brane are studied. Cosmological solutions on the brane…
The formalism of reduced quantum electrodynamics is generalized to the case of heterostructures composed of few atomically thick layers and the corresponding effective (2+1)-dimensional gauge theory is formulated. This dimensionally reduced…
We study dynamical mass generation in QED in (2+1) dimensions using Hamiltonian lattice methods. We use staggered fermions, and perform simulations with explicit dynamical fermions in the chiral limit. We demonstrate that a recently…
We discuss the collider bounds on minimal Universal Extra Dimension (mUED) model from LHC Run-I and II data. The phenomenology of mUED is determined by only two parameters namely, the compactification scale ($R^{-1}$) of the extra dimension…
It is well known that inclusion of torsion in the gravitational formalism, leads to four-fermion interactions. Although the coupling constant of this interaction is strongly suppressed in four dimensions, its value is enhanced in models…
We quantitatively discuss the possibility of deriving model-independent constraints on the general four-fermion contact interaction couplings, from the currently available data on the two-fermion production processes $e^+e^-\to\mu^+\mu^-$,…
Recently, Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos, and Dvali have proposed that there are extra compact dimensions of space, accessible to gravity but not to ordinary matter, which could be macroscopically large. In this letter, we argue that high-energy…
If constraints are imposed on a macromolecule, two inequivalent classical models may be used: the stiff and the rigid one. This work studies the effects of such constraints on the Conformational Equilibrium Distribution (CED) of the model…
We discuss possible deviations from QED produced by a virtual excited spin-3/2 lepton in the reaction $e^+e^- \longrightarrow 2\gamma$. Data recorded by the OPAL Collaboration at a c.m. energy $\sqrt{s} = 183 GeV$ are used to establish…
Single photons detected by the DELPHI experiment at LEP2 in the years 1997-2000 are reanalysed to investigate the existence of a single extra dimension in a modified ADD scenario with slightly warped large extra dimensions. The data…
Traditional approaches to quadruped control frequently employ simplified, hand-derived models. This significantly reduces the capability of the robot since its effective kinematic range is curtailed. In addition, kinodynamic constraints are…
Extra spatial dimensions are proposed by recent theories that postulate the fundamental gravitational scale to be of the same order as the electroweak scale. Different final states and search strategies are used by LEP collaborations to…
Model independent constraints on the mass of extra neutral gauge bosons and their couplings to charged leptons are given for LEP~II and a 500\,GeV $e^+e^-$ collider. Analytical exclusion limits are derived in the Born approximation. The…
