String resonances at the Large Hadron Collider

Understand

The Large Hadron Collider promises to discover new physics beyond the Standard Model.

• An exciting possibility is the formation of string resonances at the TeV scale.
• In this article, we show how string resonances may be detected at the LHC in the $pp\to\gamma+jet$ channel.
• Our study is based on event shape variables, missing energy and momentum, maximum transverse momentum of photons and dijet invariant mass.
