Unparticle Searches Through Compton Scattering

We investigate the effects of unparticles on Compton scattering, e gamma -> e gamma based on a future e^+e^- linear collider such as the CLIC. For different polarization configurations, we calculate the lower limits of the unparticle energy scale Lambda_U for a discovery reach at the center of mass energies sqrt(s)=0.5 TeV- 3 TeV. It is shown that, especially, for smaller values of the mass dimension d, (1 80 TeV for d<1.3 at sqrt(s)=3 TeV, and 1 ab^(-1) integrated luminosity per year, which is comparable with the limits calculated from other low and high energy physics implications.

Search for excited spin-3/2 and spin-1/2 leptons at linear colliders

We study the single production of excited spin-3/2 and spin-1/2 leptons in future high energy $e^+e^-$ collisions. We calculate the production cross section and decay widths of excited spin-3/2 and spin-1/2 leptons according to their effective currents. We show that these possible new excited states can be probed up to the mass $m^*$ ~ $\sqrt{s}$ depending on their couplings to leptons and gauge bosons. We present the angular distributions of final state particles as a measure to discriminate between an excited spin-3/2 and spin-1/2 lepton signal. The signals and the corresponding backgrounds are studied in detail to obtain attainable limits on masses and couplings of excited leptons at future linear colliders

Probing Little Higgs Model in e+ e- --> nu nubar gamma Process

We study the process e+e- -->nu nubar gamma to search for its sensitivity to the extra gauge bosons Z_2, Z_3 and W_2 which are suggested by the little Higgs models. We find that the ILC with sqrt(s)=0.5 TeV and CLIC with sqrt(s)=3 TeV cover different regions of the LHM parameters. We show that this channel can provide accurate determination of the parameters, complementary to measurements of the extra gauge bosons at the coming LHC experiments.

Resonant production of diquarks at high energy pp, ep and e+e- colliders

Resonant productions of the first generation scalar and vector diquarks at high energy hadron-hadron (pp), lepton-hadron (ep) and lepton-lepton (e+e-) colliders are investigated. Taking into account the hadronic component of the photon, diquarks can be produced resonantly in the lepton-hadron and lepton-lepton collisions. Production rates, decay widths and signatures of diquarks are discussed using the general, SU(3)_{C} x SU(2)_{W} x U(1)_{Y} invariant, effective Lagrangian. The corresponding dijet backgrounds are examined in the interested invariant mass regions. The attainable mass limits and couplings are obtained for the diquarks that can be produced in hadron collisions and in resolved photon processes. It is shown that hadron collider with center of mass energy sqrt(s)=14 TeV will be able to discover scalar and vector diquarks with masses up to m_{DQ}=9 TeV for quark-diquark-quark coupling alpha_{DQ}=0.1. Relatively, lighter diquarks can be probed at ep and e+e- collisions in more clear environment.

Main Parameters of Ilc-Tevatron Based Lepton-Hadron and Photon-Hadron Colliders

The construction of the ILC tangential to Tevatron ring will give opportunity to investigate electron-proton, positron-proton, electron-antiproton, positron-antiproton interactions at 1 TeV center of mass energy. The analysis of the lepton-hadron collisions in these energy region is very important both for understanding of strong interaction dynamics and for adequate interpretation of future LHC and VLHC data. In addition, ILC-Tevatron collider will provide a possibility to realize photon-hadron collisions in the same energy region using Compton backscattered laser photon off ILC electron beam. Main parameters of these colliders are estimated and their physics search potential is briefly discussed.

The Status of Turkic Accelerator Complex Proposal

Recently, the Turkic Accelerator Complex (TAC) is proposed as a regional facility for accelerator based fundamental and applied research. The complex will include linac on ring type electron-positron collider as a phi, charm and tau factory, linac based free electron laser (FEL), ring based third generation synchrotron radiation (SR) source and a few GeV proton accelerator. Preliminary estimations show that integral luminosity of hundred inverse femto-barns per year can be achieved for factory options. The FEL facility is planned to obtain laser beam between IR and soft X-ray region. In addition, SR facility will produce photon beams in UV and X-ray region. The proton accelerator will give opportunity to produce muon and neutron beams for applied research. The current status of the conceptual study of the complex is presented.

Physics at the CLIC Multi-TeV Linear Collider

This report summarizes a study of the physics potential of the CLIC e+e- linear collider operating at centre-of-mass energies from 1 TeV to 5 TeV with luminosity of the order of 10^35 cm^-2 s^-1. First, the CLIC collider complex is surveyed, with emphasis on aspects related to its physics capabilities, particularly the luminosity and energy, and also possible polarization, γγand e-e- collisions. The next CLIC Test facility, CTF3, and its R&D programme are also reviewed. We then discuss aspects of experimentation at CLIC, including backgrounds and experimental conditions, and present a conceptual detector design used in the physics analyses, most of which use the nominal CLIC centre-of-mass energy of 3 TeV. CLIC contributions to Higgs physics could include completing the profile of a light Higgs boson by measuring rare decays and reconstructing the Higgs potential, or discovering one or more heavy Higgs bosons, or probing CP violation in the Higgs sector. Turning to physics beyond the Standard Model, CLIC might be able to complete the supersymmetric spectrum and make more precise measurements of sparticles detected previously at the LHC or a lower-energy linear e+e- collider: γγcollisions and polarization would be particularly useful for these tasks. CLIC would also have unique capabilities for probing other possible extensions of the Standard Model, such as theories with extra dimensions or new vector resonances, new contact interactions and models with strong WW scattering at high energies. In all the scenarios we have studied, CLIC would provide significant fundamental physics information beyond that available from the LHC and a lower-energy linear e+e- collider, as a result of its unique combination of high energy and experimental precision.

Single production of excited neutrinos at future e^{+}e^{-}, ep and pp colliders

We study the potential of the linear collider (LC) with sqrt{s}=0.5 TeV, linac-ring type ep collider (LCxLHC) with sqrt{s}=3.74 TeV and the large hadron collider (LHC) with sqrt{s}=14 TeV to search for excited neutrinos through transition magnetic type couplings with gauge bosons. The excited neutrino signal and corresponding backgrounds are studied in detail to obtain accessible mass limits and couplings for these three types of colliders.

Production of excited electrons at TESLA and CLIC based e gamma colliders

We analyze the potential of TESLA and CLIC based electron-photon colliders to search for excited spin-1/2 electrons. The production of excited electrons in the resonance channel through the electron-photon collision and their subsequent decays to leptons and electroweak gauge bosons are investigated. We study in detail the three signal channels of excited electrons and the corresponding backgrounds through the reactions e gamma --> e gamma, e gamma --> eZ and e gamma --> nu W. Excited electrons with masses up to about 90% of the available collider energy can be probed down to the coupling f=f'=0.05(0.1) at TESLA(CLIC) based e gamma colliders.
