Z' Phenomenology and the LHC
  A brief pedagogical overview of the phenomenology of Z' gauge bosons is presented. Such particles can arise in various electroweak extensions of the Standard Model (SM). We provide a quick survey of a number of Z' models, review the current constraints on the possible properties of a Z' and explore in detail how the LHC may discover and help elucidate the nature of these new particles. We provide an overview of the Z' studies that have been performed by both ATLAS and CMS. The role of the ILC in determining Z' properties is also discussed.
