Collider Searches for Extra Spatial Dimensions and Black Holes
Abstract
Searches for extra spatial dimensions remain among the most popular new directions in our quest for physics beyond the Standard Model. High-energy collider experiments of the current decade should be able to find an ultimate answer to the question of their existence in a variety of models. We review these models and recent results from the Tevatron on searches for large, inverse-TeV-size, and Randall-Sundrum extra spatial dimensions. The most dramatic consequence of low-scale (~1 TeV) quantum gravity is copious production of mini-black holes at the LHC. We discuss selected topics in the mini-black-hole phenomenology.
