PRODUCTION AND EVAPORATION OF PLANCK SCALE BLACK HOLES AT THE LHC

Author information unavailable

Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

We review the phenomenology of mini black holes at colliders in light of the latest data from the LHC.By improving the conventional production cross-section, we show that the current non-observation of black hole signals can be explained in terms of quantum gravity effects.In the most optimistic case, black hole production could take place at a scale slightly above the LHC design energy.We also analyse possible new signatures of quantum-corrected Planck-scale black holes: in contrast to the semiclassical scenario the emission would take place in terms of soft particles mostly on the brane.
