Searches beyond the standard model at high-energy colliders

Abstract

Recent searches for physics beyond the standard model at high-energy colliders are reviewed, with emphasis on supersymmetry, additional space dimensions, extra gauge bosons, leptoquarks, and model-independent searches. The results reported are based on data samples of up to 0.5 and 2.5 fb-1 collected at HERA and at the Tevatron, respectively.
