We catalog the principal signatures of electroweak and flavor dynamics at $\pbarp$ and $pp$ colliders for use at the 1996 Snowmass Workshop on New Directions in High Energy Physics. The framework for dynamical symmetry breaking we assume is technicolor, with a walking coupling $\atc$, and extended technicolor. The reactions discussed occur mainly at subprocess energies $\rshat \simle 1\,\tev$. They include production of color-singlet and octet technirhos and their decay into pairs of technipions, longitudinal weak bosons, or jets. Technipions, in turn, decay predominantly into heavy fermions. Many of these signatures are also expected to occur in topcolor-assisted technicolor. Several particles specific to this new scenario are discussed. Additional signatures of flavor dynamics, associated with quark and lepton substructure, may be sought in excess production rates for high $E_T$ and invariant mass dijets and dileptons. An important feature of these processes is that they exhibit fairly central angular and rapidity distributions.

We catalog the principal signatures of electroweak and flavor dynamics at $\pbarp$ and $pp$ colliders for use at the 1996 Snowmass Workshop on New Directions in High Energy Physics. The framework for dynamical symmetry breaking we assume is technicolor, with a walking coupling $\atc$, and extended technicolor. The reactions discussed occur mainly at subprocess energies $\rshat \simle 1\,\tev$. They include production of color-singlet and octet technirhos and their decay into pairs of technipions, longitudinal weak bosons, or jets. Technipions, in turn, decay predominantly into heavy fermions. Many of these signatures are also expected to occur in topcolor-assisted technicolor. Several particles specific to this new scenario are discussed. Additional signatures of flavor dynamics, associated with quark and lepton substructure, may be sought in excess production rates for high $E_T$ and invariant mass dijets and dileptons. An important feature of these processes is that they exhibit fairly central angular and rapidity distributions.

Black Holes and Quantum Gravity at the LHC

Thermal multiparticle black hole events at the LHC are unlikely once energy loss and low entropy are included; two-particle scattering at wide angles is the more promising probe of low-scale quantum gravity.
