V. A. Mitsou / ValenciaPhysics at LHC 2004, Vienna 2 Outline Introduction Theoretical motivation Phenomenology Production of leptoquarks at LHC ATLAS sensitivity 2 leptons + 2 jets topology E T miss + 2 jets topology Conclusions

V. A. Mitsou / ValenciaPhysics at LHC 2004, Vienna 3 Theoretical motivation Leptoquarks (LQ) are hypothetical particles which appear in many SM extensions to explain symmetry between leptons and quarks SU(5) GUT model superstring-inspired models ‘colour’ SU(4) Pati-Salam model composite models technicolor LQs are coupled to both leptons and quarks and carry SU(3) color, fractional electric charge, baryon (B) and lepton (L) numbers LQs can have: spin 0 (scalar) ► couplings fixed, i.e., no free parameters spin 1 (vector) ► anomalous magnetic (κ G ) and electric quadrupole (λ G ) model- dependent couplings Yang-Mills coupling: κ G =λ G =0 Minimal coupling: κ G =1, λ G =0 Experimental evidence searched: indirectly: LQ-induced 4-fermion interactions directly: production cross sections at collider experiments

V. A. Mitsou / ValenciaPhysics at LHC 2004, Vienna 4 Leptoquark classification Buchmuller, R ü ckl, Wyler (BRW) model (1987) Assumptions: LQs only couple to quarks, leptons and gauge bosons (with dimensionless couplings) LQ interactions invariant under SM gauge group SU(3) C  SU(2) L  U(1) Y LQs are classified by: fermion number, F=3B+L ► F = 0, 2 spin ► J=0 (scalar) or J=1 (vector) charge ► Q em = ±1/3, ±2/3, -4/3, -5/3 Intergenerational mixing is severely restricted by FCNC data  LQ appear in 3 quark/lepton generations LQ-mediated π and K helicity- suppressed decays not observed  chiral LQ couplings to fermions 14 chiral LQ species per generation: 7 scalar LQs (3 singlets, 3 doublets, 1 triplet) 7 vector LQs (3 singlets, 3 doublets, 1 triplet)

V. A. Mitsou / ValenciaPhysics at LHC 2004, Vienna 5 Phenomenology Decays: LQs decay to ± q and/or νq with branching ratios β ℓ, β ν = 0, 0.5, 1 (depending on the quantum numbers) Scalar LQs decay isotropically Vector LQs decay ~ (1+cosθ*) 2 Each LQ characterized by two parameters: LQ massM LQ λ LQ- -q Yukawa coupling, λ Γ~ λ 2 ·m LQ Resonance width Γ~ λ 2 ·m LQ labeled by weak isospin and lepton helicity couple to ℓ - q, νq couple to ℓ + q, νq -

Mitsou / ValenciaPhysics at LHC 2004, Vienna 6 LQ production processes at LHC Single production λ strongly depends on λ possible signatures: ℓ + ℓ - + jetℓ + ℓ - + jet ℓν + jetℓν + jet νν + jetνν + jet Zjettt Main background: Zjet & tt Pair production λg-LQ-LQ Practically independent of Yukawa coupling λ (only g-LQ-LQ vertex) LQ mass Depends mainly on LQ mass LQ λ λ-dependent process does not contribute significantly to 2 nd & 3 rd generation LQ, ν LQ, ν LQ qg  LQ, qg  ν LQ qq  LQ LQ gg  LQ LQ -
