Search for Large Extra Dimensions at the Tevatron Bob Olivier, LPNHE Paris XXXVI ème Rencontre de Moriond 17 - 24 Mars 2001 16 Summary DO has searched for contributions from virtual graviton exchange in the context of “large” extra spatial dimensions. On the basis of the production of massive e-pairs and di- photons, such a scale, must be higher than ~ 1 TeV More studies are being pursued at both DO and CDF, both on virtual-graviton exchange as well as real graviton (mono-jet) production. Expected spring 2001. Run I limits are most stringent up to date Run II will be sensitive to scales of 3-4 TeV The LHC will be able to access effective “Planck” scales of 10 TeV
