Implications at the LHC of BSM interpretations of CDF's ttbar forward-backward asymmetry and Wjj anomaly

chaired by Michelangelo Mangano (CERN)
Friday, 6 May 2011 from to (Europe/Zurich)
at CERN ( 4-3-006 - TH Theory Conference Room )
Description

A review of the various BSM models proposed as possible interpretations of the anomalous foward-backward asymmetry in t-tbar production and the mass peak in Wjj final states, reported by CDF, with a discussion of the implications and possible signatures at the LHC.
