We show that stringent limits on leptoquarks that couple to first-generation quarks and left-handed electrons or muons can be derived from the spectral shape of the charged-current Drell-Yan process ($p p \to \ell^\pm \nu$) at Run 2 of the…
Leptoquarks in the mass range of 500-1000 GeV can be resonantly produced in significant numbers by PeV neutrino interacting with nuclei at IceCube. We compute the event rates of leptoquark production and decay events and use the 3-year…
