In this talk I briefly discuss some features of a striking signature of TeV quantum gravity/strings and large extra dimensions: the production of exotic objects such as black holes, and their stringy precursors, the string resonances at…
Black hole impacts on accretion disks in galactic nuclei can power luminous transients, but predicting their observable signatures is challenging because the post-collision flow is highly time-dependent and inhomogeneous. We present a…
We perform a comparative study of the reach of future $e^+e^-$ collider options for the scale of non-resonant new physics effects in the top quark sector, phrased in the language of higher-dimensional operators. Our focus is on the…
The Thompson cross section for scattering of electromagnetic waves by a free electron in an expanding universe is derived here. The equations of motion of the electron are obtained using the Einstein-Infeld-Hoffmann (EIH) surface integral…
We suggest to compare the deep inelastic scattering structure functions measured in the unpolarized charged-lepton scattering off a transversely polarized proton and off a longitudinally polarized proton at larger Bjorken variable $x$, one…
Light gravitinos, with mass in the eV to MeV range, are well-motivated in particle physics, but their status as dark-matter candidates is muddled by early-Universe uncertainties. We investigate how upcoming data from colliders may clarify…
We obtain the high energy, small angle, 2-particle gravitational scattering amplitudes in topologically massive gravity (TMG) and its two non-dynamical constituents, Einstein and Chern--Simons gravity. We use 't Hooft's approach, formally…
The study of multiparticle dynamics in hadron-hadron collisions at Tevatron and LHC could provide useful information on new physics in addition to the expected signatures on the transverse plane. We suggest that an analysis of inclusive…
The predictions of a model which was tuned in 2013 to describe the elastic and diffractive $pp$- and/or $p\bar p$-data at collider energies up to 7 TeV are compared with the new 13 TeV TOTEM results. The possibility of an odd-signature…
We compute the scattering cross section of Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes for the case of an incident electromagnetic wave. We describe how scattering is affected by both the conversion of electromagnetic to gravitational radiation, and…
The scattering of massive particles by a Schwarzschild black hole also undergoing a drag force is considered. The latter is modeled as a viscous force acting on the orbital plane, with components proportional to the associated particle…
The multidimensional space-time with $(D-4)$ compact extra space dimensions and SM fields confined on four-dimensional brane is considered. The elastic scattering amplitude of two particles interacting by gravitational forces is calculated…
Transition to the reflective scattering mode which has emerged at the highest LHC energy of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV results in a relative shrinkage with the energy of the impact parameter region responsible for the inelastic hadron collisions.…
Lightly triggered events may yield surprises about the nature of "soft" particle production at LHC energies. I suggest that event displays in coordinates matched to the dynamics of particle production (rapidity and transverse momentum) may…
The color dipole formulation provides an intuitive picture of hard processes in high energy scattering. Most importantly, this approach allows one to calculate nuclear effects in a parameter-free way. I review the relation between the…
The Teukolsky equation describing scattering from Kerr black holes captures a few important effects in the process of binary mergers, such as tidal deformations and the decay of ringdown modes, thereby raising interest in the structure of…
