Abstract

A search is presented for microscopic black holes in a like-sign dimuon final state in proton– proton collisions at √ s = 8 TeV. The data were collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2012 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb−1 . Using a high track multiplicity requirement, 0.6 ± 0.2 background events from Standard Model processes are predicted and none observed. This result is interpreted in the context of low-scale gravity models and 95% CL lower limits on microscopic black hole masses are set for different model assumptions.
