Abstract
We contrast the experimental signatures of low-energy supersymmetry and the model of Universal Extra Dimensions and discuss various methods for their discrimination at hadron colliders. We study the discovery reach of the Tevatron and the LHC for level 2 Kaluza-Klein modes, which would indicate the presence of extra dimensions. We find that with of data the LHC will be able to discover the and KK modes as separate resonances if their masses are below 2 TeV. We also investigate the possibility to differentiate the spins of the superpartners and KK modes by means of the asymmetry method of Barr.
