Abstract

Preons are a proposed type of subatomic particle more fundamental than quarks and leptons and form the core of the theory of compositeness. Within our analysis, we focused on developing a new way to generate limits on the energy scale Λ, the energy level where compositeness could be proven. More specifically, we have implemented the limit generation framework on Fermilab’s Condor system, as the limit calculations are too intense to be done on a single computer, and the Condor system is a cluster of computers at Fermilab that allows for parallel processing of the expected limits.
