Searching for Z' and model discrimination in ATLAS

If a heavy Z' boson exists, it could be one of the first particles to be discovered at the LHC, since its decay into two leptons will provide a clean signature. Interpreting the resonance may be more complicated. Here, we summarize a full detector simulation study on the possibility of distingu...

description If a heavy Z' boson exists, it could be one of the first particles to be discovered at the LHC, since its decay into two leptons will provide a clean signature. Interpreting the resonance may be more complicated. Here, we summarize a full detector simulation study on the possibility of distinguishing between models of Z' like narrow resonances, using as observables the width, cross section and forward-backward asymmetry.
