Muon-proton Colliders: Leptoquarks and Contact Interactions

Abstract

The muon-proton ($\mu p$) collider is an interesting option of the muon collider. Here we discuss the physics potential of the $\mu p$ collider; especially, leptoquarks and contact interactions. We calculate the sensitivity reach for the second generation leptoquarks and leptogluons, $R$-parity violating squarks, and $\mu q$ contact interactions for the $\mu p$ colliders of various energies and luminosities.
