High-Mass Resonances Decaying to Leptons and Photons at the Tevatron

Understand

The high-mass spectrum of lepton and photon pairs is sensitive to a broad range of new physics.

• Examples are extra dimensions and new gauge bosons such as the W' and Z'.
• Additionally, electron compositeness would result in excited electrons that decay into an electron and a photon.
• We report the latest results of searches for high-mass dilepton, diphoton, and electron-photon resonances by the CDF and D0 experiments at the Tevatron.
