If the scale of quantum gravity is near TeV, the CERN Large Hadron Collider will be producing one black hole (BH) about every second. The decays of the BHs into the final states with prompt, hard photons, electrons, or muons provide a clean signature with low background. The correlation between the BH mass and its temperature, deduced from the energy spectrum of the decay products, can test Hawking's evaporation law and determine the number of large new dimensions and the scale of quantum gravity.
如果量子引力的尺度接近万亿电子伏特,欧洲核子研究中心的大型强子对撞机将每秒产生大约一个黑洞。黑洞衰变成具有即时、高能光子、电子或μ子的末态,提供了一个背景低的清晰信号。从衰变产物的能谱推导出的黑洞质量与其温度之间的相关性,可以检验霍金蒸发定律,并确定大的新维度的数量和量子引力的尺度。
