W+Jets at CDF: Evidence for Top Quarks
Tilman Plehn, Michihisa Takeuchi
Recently, an anomaly of W+jets events at large invariant masses has been reported by CDF. Many interpretations as physics beyond the Standard Model are being offered. We show how s…
New physics searches for the LHC
Tilman Plehn
Data taking at the LHC is the beginning of a new era in particle physics which will lead us towards understanding the completion of the Standard Model at and beyond the TeV scale.…
Jets plus Missing Energy with an Autofocus
Christoph Englert, Tilman Plehn, Peter Schichtel +1
Jets plus missing transverse energy is one of the main search channels for new physics at the LHC. A major limitation lies in our understanding of QCD backgrounds. Using jet mergin…
Boosted Semileptonic Tops in Stop Decays
Tilman Plehn, Michael Spannowsky, Michihisa Takeuchi
Top partner searches are one of the key aspects of new physics analyses at the LHC. We correct an earlier statement that supersymmetric top searches based on decays to semileptonic…
Asymptotic safety and Kaluza-Klein gravitons at the LHC
Erik Gerwick, Daniel Litim, Tilman Plehn
We study Drell-Yan production at the LHC in low-scale quantum gravity models with extra dimensions. Asymptotic safety implies that the ultra-violet behavior of gravity is dictated…
Charged Higgs production with a top in MC@NLO
Tilman Plehn, Carole Weydert
The production in association with a top quark is the most promising search channel for charged Higgs bosons at the LHC. We review its theoretical description including next-to-lea…
