Signals for Non-Commutative Interactions at Linear Colliders
摘要
Recent theoretical results have demonstrated that non-commutative geometries naturally appear within the context of string/M-theory. One consequence of this possibility is that QED takes on a non-abelian nature due to the introduction of 3- and 4-point functions. In addition, each QED vertex acquires a momentum dependent phase factor. We parameterize the effects of non-commutative space-time co-ordinates and show that they lead to observable signatures in several QED processes in collisions. In particular, we examine pair annihilation, Moller and Bhabha scattering, as well as scattering and show that non-commutative scales of order a TeV can be probed at high energy linear colliders.
