We study the processes \gamma \e -> \gamma \e and \gamma \gamma -> \gamma \gamma, in the context of the proposal for Weak Scale Quantum Gravity (WSQG) with large extra dimensions. With an ultraviolet cutoff $M_S \sim 1$ TeV for the…
We study Compton scattering, gamma e -> gamma e, in the context of the recent proposal for Weak Scale Quantum Gravity (WSQG) with large extra dimensions. It is shown that, with an ultraviolet cutoff $M_S \sim 1$ TeV for the effective…
Theories with large extra compact dimensions predict exciting phenomenological consequences at the TeV scale. Such theories can, consequently, be tested/verified in experiments at future colliders like the Next Linear Collider (NLC). In…
Recently it has been pointed out that the characteristic quantum-gravity scale could be as low as the weak scale in theories with gravity propagating in higher dimensions. The observed smallness of Newton's constant is a consequence of the…
The actual potential of the next generation of Gamma Ray Telescopes in improving the existing tests of an effective Quantum Gravity scale from the study of the propagation delay for gamma rays of different energies coming from a distant…
Recent theories propose that quantum gravity effects may be observable at LEP energies via gravitons that couple to Standard Model particles and propagate into extra spatial dimensions. The associated production of a graviton and a photon…
Recently, Dicus and Repko computed nu gamma --> nu gamma gamma for energies below the threshold for e^{+}e^{-} pair production. They found across section on the order of 10^{-52} omega ^{gamma} with gamma =10, where omega is the CMS energy…
In this note, we consider dijet production at gamma gamma colliders as a probe of recently proposed, large extra-dimensional gravity models. The exchange of virtual, spin-2 graviton towers (Kaluza-Klein excitations) significantly modifies…
We consider the effect of massive spin-2 gravitons that occur as Kaluza-Klein excitations of the graviton in a Weak scale Quantum Gravity scenario on the process $\gamma \gamma \to ZZ$, which in the Standard Model can proceed through loop…
We study the potential for using $e\gamma$\ collisions produced by backscattered laser photons to investigate WW$\gamma$\ couplings. We present results for Next Linear Collider energies of 500 GeV and 1 TeV. We find that where statistics…
We describe a model in which the fundamental scale M_\star of the theory which unifies gravity and quantum mechanics is in the TeV range, but without requiring additional spacetime dimensions. The weakness of gravity at low energies is due…
We review a set of the possible ways to constrain extended gravity models at Galaxy clusters scales (the regime of dark energy explanations and comparison with $\Lambda CDM$), for black hole shadows, gravitational wave astronomy, binary…
We investigate the effects of unparticles on gamma gamma--> gamma gamma scattering for photon collider mode of the future multi-TeV e^+e^- linear collider. We show the effects of unparticles on the differential, and total scattering cross…
The cross sections for the processes $\gamma \nu\to \gamma \gamma \nu$, $\gamma\gamma\to\gamma\nu\bar{\nu}$ and $\nu\bar{\nu}\to\gamma\gamma\gamma$ are calculated for a range of center of mass energies from below $m_e$ to considerably above…
We study the process e^+e^- --> W^+W^- to probe low-scale gravity at high energy linear colliders. A characteristic signature of extra-dimensions models is the forward-backward asymmetry due to the interference of spin-2 graviton and spin-1…
Mirror matter models have been suggested recently as an explanation of neutrino puzzles and microlensing anomalies. We show that mirror supernovae can be a copious source of energetic gamma rays if one assumes that the quantum gravity scale…
Gravity can become strong at the TeV scale in the theory of extra dimensions. An effective Lagrangian can be used to describe the gravitational interactions below a cut-off scale. In this work, we study the associated production of the…
We examine the implications of the Randall-Sundrum gravity models on $\gamma\gamma$ scattering in the TeV range.
We use the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) to investigate the impact of charge dequantization arising from non-local QED on the scale of non-locality of neutrinos. We find this scale to be <= 87 TeV, which could be probed in future colliders.…
We consider a linearized, effective quantum theory of gravitation in which gravity weakens at energies higher than ~10^-3 eV in order to accommodate the apparent smallness of the cosmological constant. Such a theory predicts departures from…
