26. Constraints on Lorentz violation at a future electron-ion collider

27. Search for new heavy bosons in the dilepton final state at CMS

Jan-Frederik Schulte (Purdue University (US))

The dilepton final state offers great sensitivity to the existence of new heavy bosons that would be visible as a peak in the invariant mass distribution of the two leptons. In this talks, results of a search for new physics in this final state will be discussed, with a focus on recent extension of the interpretation in different models of new physics.

28. Exotica in Hadron Spectroscopy

Andrew Jackura (Indiana University)

The hadron spectrum contains many states which do not fit in the quark model description of hadrons. In this talk, I will discuss some phenomenological methods in identifying the nature of these exotic states. We use fundamental principles of scattering theory to model hadronic processes and test these methods against experimental data.

29. Constraining new physics with radiative lepton flavor violating decays of B, D, and K mesons

Derek Hazard (Wayne State University)
