5 The LHC: Leptonic Signatures of New Physics Why Leptons? 1. That s what you asked me to present. 2. Michigan has a key role in the construction, operation of Precision Muon Chambers 3. Lepton signatures are clean (easy to trigger, select, low non-physics background) 4. Excellent for benchmarking, calibrating, aligning (Z, W, J/ψ, ) So we will be tagging and measuring them, anyway 5.
