Extracting the Energy-Dependent Neutrino-Nucleon Cross Section above 10 TeV Using IceCube Showers.

TL;DR: Using six years of public IceCube High-Energy Starting Events, it is explicitly shown for the first time that the energy dependence of the cross section above 18 TeV agrees with the predicted softer-than-linear dependence, and reaffirm the absence of new physics that would make the crossSection rise sharply, up to a center-of-mass energy sqrt[s]≈1 TeV.

Search for anomalous production of prompt same-sign lepton pairs and pair-produced doubly charged Higgs bosons with s =8 TeV pp collisions using the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +2934 more
TL;DR: In this article, a low-background inclusive search for new physics in events with same-sign dileptons is presented, which uses proton-proton collisions corresponding to 203 fb−1 of integrated luminosity taken in 2012 at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC.

S. Chatrchyan, +2172 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a search for microscopic black holes and string balls is presented, based on a data sample of pp collisions at $ \sqrt{s}=8 $ TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 12 fb−1.

Particle Creation by Black Holes

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that quantum mechanical effects cause black holes to create and emit particles as if they were hot bodies with temperature, which leads to a slow decrease in the mass of the black hole and to its eventual disappearance.

The Hierarchy problem and new dimensions at a millimeter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a new framework for solving the hierarchy problem which does not rely on either supersymmetry or technicolor, and they take as the only fundamental short distance scale in nature.
