Current LHC searches for new colored particles generally focus on
their pair production channels and assume any single production to be
negligible. Such an assumption may be unnecessary in some cases. In
this talk, I will discuss how inclusion of single productions in pair
production searches (or vice versa) can give us new information about
model parameters. Using the recent CMS searches for scalar leptoquark,
I will demonstrate how the inclusion of single productions can affect
the mass exclusion limits and give new bounds on leptoquark
parameters. Like leptoquarks, color octet leptons or leptogluons also
decay to lepton-jet final states. We show how the leptoquark search
results can also be used to put the most stringent limit on the
leptogluon parameters and gives us a new way to derive bound on the
compositeness scale.
