10 BlackHoleEventSelection Different strategies exist. Example for M BH > 5 TeV, M D = 1 TeV, L = 1 fb 1 at s = 14 TeV Cut p T > 2.5 TeV ATLAS CSC book, arxiv: Require at least one well identified lepton e or µ with p T > 50 GeV QCD background further reduced by factor 60 Victor Lendermann, Searches for Quantum Gravity at the LHC COST Action MP0905, Bonn,

20 Conclusions With impressive detector performance in first data, ATLAS and CMS are starting first BSM searches First interesting exclusion limits may be possible even with 0 nb 1 [e.g. for geometric cross section of quantum gravity at M 1 TeV] Evidence for some phenomena is possible with first 1 0 pb 1 of data Dijets, e.g. quantum black holes in contact interactions Multijet quantum gravity effects Victor Lendermann, Searches for Quantum Gravity at the LHC 20 COST Action MP0905, Bonn,

22 PossibleExplanationinStringTheory SM gauge fields cannot go to extra dimensions at such scales. This is ruled out by HEP experiments. But gravity can! String theory SM gauge fields gravity open strings confined to the brain closed strings are free 3d brane String theories require 6 7 extra dimensions, but not necessary of the same size Why gravity? Because it couples to energy/momentum. If gravity cannot go to extra dimensions, then also no other force can. Victor Lendermann, Searches for Quantum Gravity at the LHC 22 COST Action MP0905, Bonn,

26 BlackHoleDecay 1. Balding phase: Graviton radiation. multipole moments are radiated and BH settles down in hairless state. 2. Evaporation phase: M BH M D. Hawking radiation. a) spin down losing angular momentum; b) black body radiation emission of thermally distributed quanta. Most of initial energy is emitted during this phase. Mostly in SM particles. All SM particles on our brane; gravitons also in ED. 3. Planck phase: M BH M D. Regime of quantum gravity. Predictions very difficult. BH decays in some last few SM particles or leaves stable remnant. Pictures: backreaction.blogspot.com Victor Lendermann, Searches for Quantum Gravity at the LHC 26 COST Action MP0905, Bonn,

28 IdentifyingBlackHoles Need several evidences to be sure. Various ideas exist Hawking radiation democratic decay in MC Look at distributions of particle types: ratios e/µ, e/z 0, e/t... Extract parton cross section and prove that it grows with ^s = M BH Depends on resolution and on turn on behaviour Giddings, Thomas: hep ph/06219 Harris et al.: hep ph/04122 Roy, Cavaglia: arxiv: Parton σ, pb M P, GeV M BH, GeV dσ/dm BH, pb/gev M P = 1 TeV M P = 3 TeV M P = 5 TeV M P = 7 TeV M BH, GeV plots from Dimopoulos, Landsberg: hep ph/06295 Look at event shapes (sphericity, (a)planarity, thrust... ) Victor Lendermann, Searches for Quantum Gravity at the LHC 28 COST Action MP0905, Bonn,
29 IdentifyingBH DistinctionfromSUSY BH are characterised by large /E T tail Example: cut p T > 2.5 TeV, no lepton requirement Should be underestimated, as graviton radiation was not simulated Such high /E T are not typical for SUSY would require high mass neutralino LSP Victor Lendermann, Searches for Quantum Gravity at the LHC 29 COST Action MP0905, Bonn,
30 BlackHoleModelUncertainties Large uncertainties within semiclassical approach. Previously missing features are implemented in new MC versions: Gravition emission Rotation Possible brane tension Conservation of quantum numbers (lepton, flavours) More elaborated final burst models Several analysis strategies are developed for different scenarios. Victor Lendermann, Searches for Quantum Gravity at the LHC 30 COST Action MP0905, Bonn,
31 LimitsinADDModels Astro limits have many uncertainties. Only order of magnitude estimates. In general strong astro limits for n = 2, 3. Weaker for higher n. Colliders can be more sensitive at higher n. Astro signals are sensitive to low energy gravitons modes. Colliders probe mainly high energy gravitons complementary measurements.
