An apparent anomaly in the high-pT differential cross section at CDF (see references) has generated some interest in possible sources of "odd tracks" at the LHC.
The various signatures for odd tracks consist of a few basic elements.
However, some of these (kinks, anomalous curvature) could manifest in much simpler variables such as pT and could therefore be observable in inclusive measurements of differential cross section.
