Description

We present bounds on 5D theories that have a mass gap followed by a continuous spectrum. These theories involve a metric with a warp factor and are controlled by a single parameter ρ. Using Drell-Yan data simulated from MadGraph, Pythia8, and Delphes for charged lepton and dilepton events we perform a χ2 analysis for the differential cross section predicted by the 5D theory and measured by the Standard Model.
