The models of large extra compact dimensions, as suggested by Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos and Dvali, predict exciting phenomenological consequences with gravitational interactions becoming strong at the TeV scale. Such theories can be tested…
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…
Perturbative breaking of supersymmetry in four-dimensional string theories predict in general the existence of new large dimensions at the TeV scale. Such large dimensions lie in a domain of energies accessible to particle accelerators.…
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 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…

Theories with large extra dimensions predict an infinite tower of Kaluza-Klein states in the 1 TeV range, which can consequently have significant implications for experimental observables. One such observable, which gets affected by the…
Dijet production at the Tevatron including effects of virtual exchanges of spin-2 Kaluza-Klein modes in theories with large extra dimensions is considered. The experimental dijet mass and angular distribution are exploited to obtain…
Recently, it has been proposed that the fundamental scale of quantum gravity can be close to the weak scale if there are large extra dimensions. This proposal has important phenomenological implications for processes at the TeV scale. We…
In contrast to the old heterotic string case, the (weakly coupled) type I brane framework allows to have all, part or none of the standard model gauge group factors propagating in large extra--dimensions of TeV$^{-1}$ size. We investigate…
The prospect of large extra dimensions and an effective theory of gravity at around a TeV has interesting experimental consequences. In these models, the Kaluza-Klein modes interact with Standard Model particles and these interactions lead…
We have studied dijet production in $\gamma \gamma$ collisions with a view to probing the physics of large extra dimensions. The exchange of virtual spin-2 Kaluza-Klein excitations is found to modify the dijet cross-section substantially…
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…
In scenarios motivated by string theories, it is possible to have extra Kaluza-Klein dimensions compactified to rather large magnitudes, leading to large effects of gravity at scales down to a TeV. The effect of the spin-2 Kaluza-Klein…
Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos and Dvali have recently proposed that gravity may become strong at energies near 1 TeV due to the existence of large extra dimensions thus `removing' the hierarchy problem. In this talk we examine the exchange of…
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…
In scenarios with extra dimensions the gravitational interaction may become strong at TeV energies. This could modify the $\nu$$N$ cross section and imply distinct signals at neutrino telescopes. In particular, cosmogenic neutrinos of…
Direct production of Kaluza-Klein states in the TeV range is studied for the experimental environment at the multi-TeV $e^+e^-$ collider CLIC. The sensitivity of such data to model parameters is discussed for the Randall-Sundrum(RS) and TeV…
Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos and Dvali have recently suggested that gravity may become strong at energies near 1 TeV which would remove the hierarchy problem. Such a scenario can be tested at present and future colliders since the exchange of…
We investigate the sensitivity of future photon-photon colliders to low scale gravity scenarios via the process $\gamma\gamma \to ZZ$ where the Kaluza-Klein boson exchange contributes only when the initial state photons have opposite…
