We consider a model where sterile neutrinos can propagate in a large compactified extra dimension giving rise to Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes and the standard model left-handed neutrinos are confined to a 4-dimensional spacetime brane. The KK…
We obtain contraints on three Universal Extra Dimensional models utilizing limits from the CMS Collaboration on W' production and decay into a single-top-quark final state. We find a weak constraint on the Minimal Universal Extra Dimensions…
We consider the universal extra dimensions scenario of Appelquist, Cheng, and Dobrescu, in which all of the SM fields propagate into one extra compact dimension, estimated therein to be as large as $\sim (350$ GeV$)^{-1}$. Tree-level KK…
We discuss collider signatures of (1,1)-th Kaluza-Klein (KK) mode vector bosons in the framework of two universal extra dimension model, at a future electron-positron collider. Production of the (1,1)-th KK mode of electro-weak vector…
We discuss the signatures, at the LHC, of the (1,0)-th Kaluza-Klein (KK) gluon and quarks in the framework of the two universal extra dimensional (2UED) model. Once produced, these particles typically suffer a cascade of decays terminating…
We consider the possibility of charged stable Kaluza-Klein leptons in orbifold models in which all the Standard Model fields propagate (UED models). At tree level the masses of the 1st mode states are nearly identical and kinematics can…
We study the physics of Kaluza-Klein (KK) top quarks in the framework of a non-minimal Universal Extra Dimension (nmUED) with an orbifolded (S1/Z2) flat extra spatial dimension in the presence of brane-localized terms (BLTs). In general,…
The minimal Universal Extra Dimension (mUED) model respects the Kaluza-Klein (KK) parity $(-1)^n$, where $n$ is the KK number. However, it is possible to have interactions located at only one of the two fixed points of the $S_1/\ztwo$…
In the 'fat-brane' realization of Universal Extra Dimension (UED) models, the gravity mediated decays of Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitations of the Standard Model (SM) particles offer interesting collider signals. Colored level-1 KK-particles…
We review the main results of the study of the Standard model propagating in two universal extra dimensions. Gauge bosons give rise to heavy spin-1 and spin-0 particles. The latter constitute the lightest Kaluza-Klein (KK) particle in the…
We review the phenomenology of models with flat, compactified extra dimensions where all of the Standard Model fields are allowed to propagate in the bulk, known as Universal Extra Dimensions (UED). UED make for an interesting TeV-scale…
Universal extra dimensions, presumably observable at some high-energy scale, would modify low-energy observables, being particularly relevant for physical processes forbidden at tree level by the Standard Model. We address the Kaluza-Klein…
We contrast the experimental signatures of low energy supersymmetry and the model of Universal Extra Dimensions and discuss various methods for their discrimination at hadron colliders. We study the discovery reach of the Tevatron and the…
We examine the virtual effects of Kaluza-Klein (KK) states on Higgs physics in universal extra dimension models. We study the partial widths $\Gamma_{h \to gg}$, $\Gamma_{h \to \gamma \gamma}$, and $\Gamma_{h \to \gamma Z}$, which are…
The Universal Extra Dimensions model has been implemented in the Pythia generator from version 6.4.18 onwards, in its minimal formulation with one inverse-TeV-sized extra dimension. The additional possibility of gravity-mediated decays,…
We investigate the collider implications of Split Universal Extra Dimensions. The non-vanishing fermion mass in the bulk, which is consistent with the KK-parity, largely modifies the phenomenology of Minimal Universal Exta Dimensions. We…
Models of Universal Extra Dimensions (UED) at the TeV scale lead to the presence of Kaluza Klein (KK) excitations of the ordinary fermions and bosons of the Standard Model that may be observed at hadron and lepton colliders. A conserved…
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…
With one extra dimension, current high precision electroweak data constrain the masses of the first Kaluza-Klein excitations of the Standard Model gauge fields to lie above $\simeq 4$ TeV. States with masses not much larger than this should…
In this paper we investigate the phenomenological implications of boundary localized terms (BLTs) in the model of Universal Extra Dimensions (UED). In particular, we study the electroweak Kaluza-Klein mass spectrum resulting from BLTs and…
