Abstract
Dijet events produced in LHC proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy are studied with the ATLAS detector using the full 2012 data set, with an integrated luminosity of . Dijet masses up to about 4.5 TeV are probed. No resonancelike features are observed in the dijet mass spectrum. Limits on the cross section times acceptance are set at the 95% credibility level for various hypotheses of new phenomena in terms of mass or energy scale, as appropriate. This analysis excludes excited quarks with a mass below 4.06 TeV, color-octet scalars with a mass below 2.70 TeV, heavy bosons with a mass below 2.45 TeV, chiral bosons with a mass below 1.75 TeV, and quantum black holes with six extra space-time dimensions with threshold mass below 5.66 TeV.
