Resumo

We study the potential of the CERN large hadron collider to probe the spin of new massive vector boson resonances predicted by Higgsless models. We consider its production via weak boson fusion which relies only on the coupling between the new resonances and the weak gauge bosons. We show that the large hadron collider will be able to unravel the spin of the particles associated with the partial restoration of unitarity in vector boson scattering for integrated luminosities of $150--560\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{fb}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$, depending on the new state mass and on the method used in the analyses.
