This workshop focused on the indications of quark compositeness and examined key signatures from excited quarks and leptons. We analyzed production cross sections specifically for jets and leptons, utilizing simulations through PYTHIA. The discussions covered various masses and resolution effects for excited quarks, as well as the implications for high-energy hadron colliders with a center-of-mass energy of 200 TeV. The insights gained here contribute significantly to our understanding of particle behavior in future colliders.
