Searches for New Physics in Events with a photon and a missing energy at CDF Run II

Abstract

The addition of the EMTiming system installed to provide the time measurements of the electromagnetic calorimeter signals has significantly increased the sensitivity of CDF to events with a photon and a missing energy. Here I review recent searches in this signature performed by CDF using data from proton-antiproton collisions at the center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV. They provide new constraints on models with large extra dimensions and with gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking.
