Discovery Potential for Di-lepton and Lepton+Etmiss Resonances at High Mass with ATLAS

Abstract

This paper describes the discovery potential for new resonances with the ATLAS experiment. The resonances discussed in here are the Z', leptoquarks, graviton and W' resonances in some of their leptonic final states, considering a center-of-mass energy of 14 TeV for all of them, and an estimation of the potential of the W' search at the early center-of-mass energy of the LHC . The studied scenarios show that an initial run of few tens of 1/pb would be enough to go beyond the current limits in most of these models.
