Description
Using 5.4 fb-1 of data from ppbar collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV recorded
with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider we investigate
various models of new physics using final states with two leptons
(either pairs of charged leptons, or single lepton final states with
missing transverse momentum from neutrinos) and one or two jets. The
searches are used to set limits on the production cross section for
resonances decaying into WZ pairs, leptoquarks, vector quarks and
technicolor models. We also consider, for the first time, cases in
which the highly boosted decay products of a weak boson are observed
in the detector as a single jet with large mass.
