Bounds on Large Extra Dimensions from the Generalized Uncertainty Principle
Marco Cavaglia, Benjamin Harms, Shaoqi Hou
The Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) implies the existence of a physical minimum length scale . In this scenario, black holes must have a radius larger than . They…
Bounds on large extra dimensions from the simulation of black hole events at the LHC
Shaoqi Hou, Benjamin Harms, Marco Cavaglia
If large extra dimensions exist, the Planck scale may be as low as a TeV and microscopic black holes may be produced in high-energy particle collisions at this energy scale. We sim…
String resonances at the Large Hadron Collider
Arunava Roy, Marco Cavaglia
The Large Hadron Collider promises to discover new physics beyond the Standard Model. An exciting possibility is the formation of string resonances at the TeV scale. In this articl…
Discriminating Supersymmetry and Black Holes at the Large Hadron Collider
Arunava Roy, Marco Cavaglia
We show how to differentiate the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model from black hole events at the Large Hadron Collider. Black holes are simulated with the CATF…
Supersymmetry versus black holes at the LHC
Arunava Roy, Marco Cavaglia
Supersymmetry and extra dimensions are the two most promising candidates for new physics at the TeV scale. Supersymmetric particles or extra-dimensional effects could soon be obser…
Signatures of black holes at the LHC
Marco Cavaglia, Romulus Godang, Lucien M. Cremaldi +1
Signatures of black hole events at CERN's Large Hadron Collider are discussed. Event simulations are carried out with the Fortran Monte Carlo generator CATFISH. Inelasticity effect…
QCD and spin effects in black hole airshowers
Marco Cavaglia, Arunava Roy
In models with large extra dimensions, black holes may be produced in high-energy particle collisions. We revisit the physics of black hole formation in extensive airshowers from u…
Catfish: A Monte Carlo simulator for black holes at the LHC
M. Cavaglia, R. Godang, L. Cremaldi +1
We present a new Fortran Monte Carlo generator to simulate black hole events at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. The generator interfaces to the PYTHIA Monte Carlo fragmentation code.…
Simulations of black hole air showers in cosmic ray detectors
Eun-Joo Ahn, Marco Cavaglia
We present a comprehensive study of TeV black hole events in Earth's atmosphere originated by cosmic rays of very high energy. An advanced fortran Monte Carlo code is developed and…
What we (don't) know about black hole formation in high-energy collisions
Vitor Cardoso, Emanuele Berti, Marco Cavaglia
Higher-dimensional scenarios allow for the formation of mini-black holes from TeV-scale particle collisions. The purpose of this paper is to review and compare different methods fo…
Resolution of Nearly Mass Degenerate Higgs Bosons and Production of Black Hole Systems of Known Mass at a Muon Collider
R. Godang, S. Bracker, M. Cavaglia +3
The direct s-channel coupling to Higgs bosons is 40000 times greater for muons than electrons; the coupling goes as mass squared. High precision scanning of the lighter and t…
Uncertainties in limits on TeV-gravity from neutrino-induced showers
Eun-Joo Ahn, Marco Cavaglia, Angela V Olinto
In models with TeV-scale gravity, ultrahigh energy cosmic rays can generate microscopic black holes in the collision with atmospheric and terrestrial nuclei. It has been proposed t…
Will we observe black holes at LHC?
Marco Cavaglia, Saurya Das, Roy Maartens
The generalized uncertainty principle, motivated by string theory and non-commutative quantum mechanics, suggests significant modifications to the Hawking temperature and evaporati…
Cosmic Black Holes
Eun-Joo Ahn, Marco Cavaglia
Production of high-energy gravitational objects is a common feature of gravitational theories. The primordial universe is a natural setting for the creation of black holes and othe…
TeV black hole fragmentation and detectability in extensive air showers
Eun-Joo Ahn, Maximo Ave, Marco Cavaglia +1
In models with large extra dimensions, particle collisions with center-of-mass energy larger than the fundamental gravitational scale can generate nonperturbative gravitational obj…
Black hole multiplicity at particle colliders (Do black holes radiate mainly on the brane?)
Marco Cavaglia
If gravity becomes strong at the TeV scale, we may have the chance to produce black holes at particle colliders. In this paper we study some experimental signatures of black hole p…

A New Era in High-energy Physics
Eun-Joo Ahn, Marco Cavaglia
In TeV-scale gravity, scattering of particles with center-of-mass energy of the order of a few TeV can lead to the creation of nonperturbative, extended, higher-dimensional gravita…
