Microscopic Black Hole Events in Future Hadron Colliders

Abstract

Microscopic black hole production at future hadron colliders is a promising avenue to explore low scale gravity models like ADD. This study investigates production cross-sections and final state properties of these black holes using the BlackMax event generator. We analyze scenarios with varying proton-proton collision energies (27 TeV and 100 TeV), number of extra dimensions (2, 4, and 6), and black hole rotation. Black holes are found to decay to up to seventeen particles, which have high transverse momentum (up to 30 TeV) and concentrated in the central region. This unique signature allows them to be distinguished from background processes. The parameter space explored suggests future colliders like HE-LHC and FCC-hh have the potential to probe low scale gravity models.
