Early New Physics with Jets at the LHC

Many proposed models of new physics predict yet undiscovered particles which decay with high branching fractions into quarks and/or gluons, such as extra gauge bosons or fourth generation quarks.

Sumario:Many proposed models of new physics predict yet undiscovered particles which decay with high branching fractions into quarks and/or gluons, such as extra gauge bosons or fourth generation quarks. The high branching fractions to quarks make searches in channels with jets in the final state attractive for investigations at low integrated luminosities or new phenomena with low production cross sections. The most challenging aspect of such an analysis is the large background expected from standard model QCD processes. The prospects of new discoveries in final states with jets at the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC will be presented.
