QED-Excited Leptons

Such studies examine the validity of Q.E.D. in energy regions where it has never been tested. Possible deviations from predictions of this well established theory can provide us with new insight towards a theory unifying the fundamental interactions. The discovery of excited particles offers new possibilities, as it can be a signature of a deeper level in the structure of matter, leading to new interesting phenomena.
Within this topic, work is performed on the analysis of:


	events, leading to the extraction of direct limits for various Q.E.D. cutoff parameters and for the mass of the excited electron. These studies are performed by the use of many different statistical methods to extract the final results.
