Other Exotic Scenarios at the LHC

The considerable center-of-mass energy and luminosity provided by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will ensure a discovery reach for new particles which extends well into the multi-TeV region. ATLAS and CMS have carried out many studies of the implications of this capability for Beyond the Standard Model physics. In this paper, we summarize some key results of studies involving non-susy models, such as extra-dimensions, little higgs, compositeness, and left-right symmetric models.Comment: 7 pages, conferenc

Growth performance of exotic Oreochromis niloticus, exotic Oreochromis niloticus fed with pelleted feeds in flow-through system

Local, exotic and hybrid tilapia fingerlings were fed 45% crude protein diet containing 18% fish meal in a flow through system in triplicate and their growth and food utilization observed for 14 weeks. At the end of the study, the hybrid (Exotic Oreochromis niloticus male x Exotic Oreochromis aureus female) fingerlings had higher growth rate and food conversion ratio (FCR) than the other treatments. This was followed by Exotic Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings. The exotic Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings came next while the local Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings were the least in growth performance. The survival rate of the local O. niloticus was however higher than the other treatment

Prospects for Pentaquark Searches in e+e−e^+e^- Annihilations and γγ\gamma\gamma Collisions

Recent strong experimental evidence of a narrow exotic S = +1 baryon resonance, $\Theta^+$, suggests the existence of other exotic baryons. We discuss the prospects of confirming earlier experimental evidence of $\Theta^+$ and the observation of additional hypothetical exotic baryons in $e^+e^-$ annihilations and $\gamma\gamma$ collisions at LEP and B Factories

Prominent Decay Modes of a Leptophobic Z'

An anomaly-free U(1) charge $Q'$ has recently been identified within the group E$_6$ for which the familiar leptons (the left- and right-handed electron and the left-handed neutrino) have $Q' = 0$. It is pointed out that the $Q'$ charges of several {\it exotic} leptons within E$_6$ matter multiplets are quite large, leading to the prediction that half of the decays of the so-called ``leptophobic'' $Z'$ bosons coupling to $Q'$ are to these exotic leptons. Other large $Q'$ charges include those of standard up-type quarks and exotic down-type quarks. Substantial forward-backward asymmetries are expected in $u \bar u \to Z' \to f \bar f$ channels when $f$ is a standard up-type quark, an exotic down-type quark, or an exotic lepton.Comment: 7 pages, latex, no figures.

Big-Rip, Sudden Future, and other exotic singularities in the universe

We discuss exotic singularities in the evolution of the universe motivated by the progress of observations in cosmology. Among them there are: Big-Rip (BR), Sudden Future Singularities (SFS), Generalized Sudden Future Singularities (GSFS), Finite Density Singularities (FD), type III, and type IV singularities. We relate some of these singularities with higher-order characteristics of expansion such as jerk and snap. We also discuss the behaviour of pointlike objects and classical strings on the approach to these singularities.Comment: 3 pages, MG11 proceedings contributio
