The two-jet angular distribution probing virtual exotics at hadron colliders

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

Heavy virtual exotics, affecting the QCD quark-scattering amplitudes, can best be probed by the normalized two-jet angular distribution at the LHC, the SSC and the Fermilab Tevatron. As typical examples we considerSU(3) L ⊗SU(3) R axigluons andE 6 diquarks compared to the more familiar quark effective contact terms. We propose optimal jet pseudorapidity and invariant-mass cuts in order to enhance the signal at the future colliders. The discovery limits thus obtained, are studied in terms of energy and luminosity for each machine, comparatively.
