Vectorlike $τ$ production through leptoquarksNumerous phenomenological studies and collider searches have probed for the existence of new physics by looking for signatures of leptoquarks (LQs) or vectorlike leptons (VLLs). We consider a new possibility that can arise in theories with enhanced gauge symmetries: both particles are simultaneously present, and LQ-mediated processes enhance the VLL production at the LHC. We study the effect of non-standard interactions of LQs that contribute to novel production and decay signatures. We obtain …
