Description
This talk will discuss the connection between string
phenomenology, model building and LHC measurements. Topics
will be strictly limited to those in which predictions for
actual LHC observables are made. We will survey in a brief
fashion direct string production at the LHC, anomalous
vector boson couplings, new exotic states, quasi-stable
supersymmetric particles and MSSM models with non-universal
supersymmetry breaking. Topics will be drawn from
intersecting brane constructions, F-theory, and orbifold
compactifications of heterotic string theory.
