Search for Universal Extra Dimensions with the D0 Experiment

Abstract

A search for signs of universal extra dimensions (UED) has been performed with the D0 experiment, using events with two same-sign muons. The considered minimal UED model includes one extra dimension, and has a stable lightest Kaluza-Klein particle (LKP) which is a dark matter candidate. In the search, 7.3 fb^{-1} of D0 data, collected in p\bar{p} collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron collider at \surd\bar{s} = 1.96 TeV, have been used.
