This paper summarizes recent results on non-SUSY searches at the Fermilab Tevatron p{bar p} collider. All the analysis are based on the complete data samples recorded by both the CDF and D0 collaborations during the 1992-1995 running period (Run 1), and correspond to (almost equal to) 100 pb−1. Searches for new neutral heavy vector bosons, leptoquarks, dijet mass resonances, and associated production of new heavy scalars together with vector bosons show no evidence for new physics. Consequently, the results have been interpreted in terms of 95% confidence level limits on production cross sections and new particle masses.

We present the results for the different leptoquark searches that have been performed at the Tevatron Run II using both the CDF and the D0 detectors [1]. Emphasis will be put on the more recent searches in the jj[nu][nu] and jj[mu][nu] final states. The latest results for the other channels will be quoted for completeness.

This note summarizes results on leptoquarks and technicolor searches at the Tevatron with a more particular focus on recent ones. Results on leptoquark pair production with leptoquark decays to q[nu], qe, q[mu] and q[tau] are given for an analysed luminosity up to 5.2 fb−1. In most analyses, both leptoquarks decay identically leading to signatures of jets and missing transverse momentum or jets and charged leptons. Technicolor results are given with a particular emphasis on technirho decaying toWZ in a trilepton signature and on technirho decaying to aW and a technipion.

This updated edition of Collider Physics surveys the major developments in theoretical and experimental particle physics and uses numerous illustrations to show how the Standard Model explains the experimental results. Collider Physics offers an introduction to the fundamental particles and their interactions at the level of a lecture course for graduate students, with emphasis on the aspects most closely related to colliders--past, present, and future. It includes expectations for new physics associated with Higgs bosons and supersymmetry. This resourceful book shows how to make practical calculations and serves a dual purpose as a textbook and a handbook for collider physics phenomenology.

Experimental Particle Physics is written for advanced undergraduate or beginning postgraduate students starting data analysis in experimental particle physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Assuming only a basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and special relativity, the text reviews the current state of affairs in particle physics, before comprehensively introducing all the ingredients that go into an analysis.

This first book to critically summarize the latest achievements and emerging applications within this interdisciplinary topic focuses on one of the most important types of detectors for elementary particles and photons: resistive plate chambers (RPCs). In the first part, the outstanding, international team of authors comprehensively describes and presents the features and design of single and double-layer RPCs before covering more advanced multi-layer RPCs. The second part then focuses on the application of RPCs in high energy physics, materials science, medicine and security. Throughout, the experienced authors adopt a didactic approach, with each subject presented in a simple way, increasing in complexity step by step.

Written by authors working at the forefront of research, this accessible treatment presents the current status of the field of collider-based particle physics at the highest energies available, as well as recent results and experimental techniques. It is clearly divided into three sections; The first covers the physics -- discussing the various aspects of the Standard Model as well as its extensions, explaining important experimental results and highlighting the expectations from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The second is dedicated to the involved technologies and detector concepts, and the third covers the important - but often neglected - topics of the organisation and financing of high-energy physics research. A useful resource for students and researchers from high-energy physics.
