Abstract

The conceptual problems of the Standard Model and open questions like the nature of dark matter motivate the search for new physics. New physics models which try to solve these problems or find an explanation for the open questions are often an extension of the Standard Model. These new physics models almost always predict new particles that can be searched for. In the following chapter the search for such a new particle is described.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Also an analysis from the D0 collaboration exists [2] but it provides not the needed information to be included in Fig. 7.1.
