Kaluza-Klein/Z's Differentiation at the LHC and Linear Collider
- SLAC
We explore the capabilities of the LHC and the Linear Collider (LC) to distinguish the production of Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitations from an ordinary Z{prime} within the context of theories with TeV scale extra dimensions. At the LHC, these states are directly produced in the Drell-Yan channel while at the LC the effects of their exchanges are indirectly felt as new contact interactions in processes such as e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} f{bar f}. While we demonstrate that the LC is somewhat more capable at KK/Z{prime} differentiation than is the LHC, the simplest LC analysis relies upon the LHC data for the resonance mass as an important necessary input.
