brane world, proposed some years ago by Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos and Dvali (ADD scenarios [CITATION]), where the Standard Model (SM) particles are confined to live in the world brane and only gravitons are free to move along the [MATH] dimensional bulk space (see [CITATION] for recent reviews).', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-5-1': 'This fact turns out to be particularly true when the brane tension scale [MATH] being the brane tension) is much smaller than the [MATH] dimensional or fundamental gravitational scale [MATH], i.e., [MATH].', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-5-2': 'In this case the only relevant low-energy modes of the ADD scenarios are the SM particles and branons which are the quantized brane oscillations.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-5-3': 'Branons can be understood as the (pseudo)Goldstone bosons corresponding to the spontaneous breaking of translational invariance in the bulk space produced by the presence of the brane.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-5-4': 'It has been pointed out that branons could solve some of the problems of the brane-world scenarios such as the divergent virtual contributions from the Kaluza-Klein tower at the tree level or non-unitarity of the graviton production cross-sections [CITATION].', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-5-5': 'As Goldstone bosons, branons are in principle massless, but in the cases where the metric of the extra dimensions cannot be factorized, they can become massive [CITATION].', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-5-6': 'This is similar to the case of pions which, being the Goldstone bosons of the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry, acquire some mass due to the explicit breaking of the symmetry induced by the quark masses.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-6-0': 'In previous works the different effective actions have been obtained, namely: the effective action for the SM fields on the brane, that for the branon self-interactions and finally that corresponding to the interaction between SM fields and branons [CITATION].', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-6-1': 'In general, this branon effective action can be parameterized by the number of branons [MATH], the tension scale [MATH] and the branon masses (for an explicit construction see [CITATION]).', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-6-2': 'Using the effective action it is possible to obtain the different Feynman rules, the amplitudes and finally the cross-sections for branon production from SM particles.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-6-3': 'In

the tension scale and on the branon mass for a given branon number.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-6-5': 'Other restrictions have also been set from astrophysical and cosmological considerations due to the fact that branon dark matter can present relevant abundances [CITATION].', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-7-0': 'In this work we study branon production in hadron colliders and also in electron-proton colliders such as

and extend the analysis for an arbitrary branon mass.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-7-3': 'The paper is organized as follows: In Sec.II we shortly review the branon effective action.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-7-4':

'hep-ph-0405286-1-9-2': 'The effective action for the SM particles and their interactions with branons is given by [EQUATION] where [MATH] is the SM Lagrangian and [MATH] is the SM energy-momentum

tensor is: [EQUATION] from where we can obtain the [MATH], [MATH] and [MATH] vertices.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-0': 'Therefore, by using these energy-momentum tensors and the effective action above, it is possible to obtain the different Feynman rules involving branons.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-1': 'One important observation is that in all the vertices obtained above, branons appear always by pairs.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-2': 'In fact they interact in a way similar to gravitons since they couple to the energy momentum tensor.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-3': 'This can be seen by making the formal identification of the graviton field [MATH] which appear in linearized gravity with [EQUATION] where [MATH] and [MATH] the Planck mass.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-4': 'Of course the physical meaning is completely different for branons and gravitons.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-5': 'In any case branons are expected to be weakly interacting and then they will scape to detection.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-6': 'Hence their typical signature will be missing energy and momentum with a continuum spectrum.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-11-7': 'In the following sections we will study the production mechanisms relevant for the different hadronic colliders.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-12-0': '# Proton-(anti)proton colliders', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-13-0': 'For the case of proton-antiproton colliders like Tevatron, the most important

'hep-ph-0405286-1-13-1': 'Therefore the expected experimental signal will be in both cases one monojet [MATH] and missing energy and momentum.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-13-2': 'This is a very clear signature that in principle can be easily identified.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-13-3': 'Another potentially interesting process is the quark-antiquark annihilation giving a photon and a branon pair.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-13-4': 'In this case the signature is one single photon and missing energy and momentum.', 'hep-ph-0405286-1-14-0': 'The Feynman diagrams contributing to the main subprocesses

Dataset Card for ArXivEdits (Sentence-aligned documents)
ArXivEdits is a dataset comprising 751 English scientific papers from arXiv, each with sentence alignments across multiple revisions. It also includes fine-grained, span-level edits which are annotated with the revision type and the underlying intention for 1000 sentences. This dataset consists of only the sentence-aligned documents subset of the whole dataset. The annotated edits can be found in this dataset.
