WEXD@LHC, KITPC(Beijing),6/30/08 Warped Extra Dimension the LHC Amarjit Soni HET, BNL Advanced topics in flavor physics KITPC, Beijing, 6/30/08 (soni@; adlersoni@) Outline Intro, theoretical motivation Any hints Possible repurcussions for LE flavor physics LEET candidate: an illustrative example Signals @ LHC RS vs. LRS Outlook Summary Intro… Introduction Theoretical Motivation Basic idea of XtraDim long history: Nordstrom(1914), Kaluza(’21), Klein(’26) Efforts to unify GR with EM More Recently String Theory since the ’80’s: consistency required 10 or 11 dimension In Particle Physics since the ’90’s a recurring theme: Main Motivation EW-P hierarchy, MW /MP ~10-17 ! PROS Cons The possibilty to simultaneously address EW-Pl and EW-Fl puzzles renders the basic warp idea extremely appealing BUT Specific model(s) that can be used to make reliable predictions are not yet there In view of this shortcoming emphasize GENERIC CLUES TARGETS Gold-mines@ HL energies LHC:G-Z(ll) Z(l’l’), WW LHC et al: t \bar t due (G,g,Z..)KK.?BOOSTED(t,W,Z..) LHC: Top polarization, FB-asym? LHC: t- c Z……. t-edm LC(ILC,CLIC,muLC…): Some items clearly More important/relevant for LC et al (e.g. t-edm, tcz f-B asym…) N-edm D0 mixing CP (dir TD) BS (CP) -ψφ…. Bd - (φ,η’……)KS,, γ K* ….TDCP Ultimately an experimental question Analogy with Guts….expedited pushing searches for proton lifetime resulting in improvement of bounds by ~O(104 ) While a compelling conclusive evidence for breakdown of SM in flavor physics cannot be made at present , in the last few years several interesting (and perhaps strong) hints have emerged. Although, taking too seriously every little deviation is not desirable and may be counterproductive; disregarding or overlooking the hints can be equally unwise and in fact can be more damaging. Following these up in flavor collider physics and in theory may prove beneficial. { based in part on Enrico Lungh
