Analyses of high mass resonances at ATLAS and CMS

Several plausible extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of high mass resonances that can be reconstructed (either fully or partially) in the ATLAS and CMS detectors using leptons, jets and the missing transverse energy. We present the results of recent detailed studies of these searches performed by both collaborations, focusing on the potential for discovery and limits setting with an integrated luminosity of the order of 200/pb per experiment.
