Linear Collider Physics Resource Book for Snowmass 2001, 3: Studies of Exotic and Standard Model Physics

This Resource Book reviews the physics opportunities of a next-generation e+e- linear collider and discusses options for the experimental program. Part 3 reviews the possible experiments on that can be done at a linear collider on strongly coupled electroweak symmetry breaking, exotic particles, and extra dimensions, and on the top quark, QCD, and two-photon physics. It also discusses the improved precision electroweak measurements that this collider will make available.This Resource Book reviews the physics opportunities of a next-generation e+e- linear collider and discusses options for the experimental program.

Search for a heavy neutral gauge boson in the dielectron channel with 5.4 fb-1 of ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV

We report the results of a search for a heavy neutral gauge boson Z' decaying into the dielectron final state using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb-1 collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. No significant excess above the standard model prediction is observed in the dielectron invariant-mass spectrum. We set 95% C.L. upper limits on \sigma (ppbar -> Z') X BR(Z' -> ee) depending on the dielectron invariant mass. These cross section limits are used to determine lower mass limits for Z' bosons in a variety of models with standard model couplings and variable strength.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure

Linear Collider Physics Resource Book for Snowmass 2001 - Part 4: Theoretical, Accelerator, and Experimental Options

This Resource Book reviews the physics opportunities of a next-generation e+e- linear collider and discusses options for the experimental program. Part 4 discusses options for the linear collider program, at a number of levels. First, it presents a broad review of physics beyond the Standard Model, indicating how the linear collider is relevant to each possible pathway. Next, it surveys options for the accelerator and experimental plan, including the questions of the running scenario, the issue of one or two interaction regions, and the options for positron polarization, photon-photon collisions, and e-e- collisions. Finally, it reviews the detector design issues for the linear collider and presents three possible detector designs
