Differentiating unparticles from extra dimensions via mini black hole thermodynamics

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A thermodynamics-based method is presented for differentiating mini black hole creation mechanisms in high energy parton collisions, including scenarios with large compactified extra dimensions and unparticle-enhanced gravity with real scaling dimension d U . Tensor unparticle interactions are shown to mimic the physics of (2d U −2) noninteger extra spatial dimensions. This yields unique model-dependent production rates, Hawking temperature profiles, and decay multiplicities for black holes of mass M BH ∼1–15  TeV that may be created at the LHC and other future colliders.
