Exotics Searches at Colliders, Why and How?

Sinead Farrington (Edinburgh University)


Abstract

When and how did exotics searches begin? What has an exotics search constituted in the past (this will be a bit of an historical tour of now-ancient TDRs) and where are we with searches today? I will then focus on current searches and discuss efforts to search for long-lived particles.
