Search for the associated production of the Higgs boson with a top quark pair i...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationA search for the associated production of the Higgs boson with a top quark pair is performed in multilepton final states using 20.3 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at s√=8 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. Five final states, targeting the decays H→WW∗, ττ, and ZZ∗, are examined for the presence of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson: two same-charge light leptons (e or μ) w...
Search for long-lived, weakly interacting particles that decay to displaced had...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationA search for the decay of neutral, weakly interacting, long-lived particles using data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. This analysis uses the full dataset recorded in 2012: 20.3 fb−1 of proton--proton collision data at s√=8 TeV. The search employs techniques for reconstructing decay vertices of long-lived particles decaying to jets in the inner tracking detector and muon spectrometer. S...
Search for high-mass diboson resonances with boson-tagged jets in proton-proton...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationA search is performed for narrow resonances decaying into WW, WZ, or ZZ boson pairs using 20.3 fb−1 of proton--proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of s√ = 8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Diboson resonances with masses in the range from 1.3 to 3.0 TeV are sought after using the invariant mass distribution of dijets where both jets are tagged as a boson jet, compa...
Search for massive, long-lived particles using multitrack displaced vertices or...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationMany extensions of the Standard Model posit the existence of heavy particles with long lifetimes. This article presents the results of a search for events containing at least one long-lived particle that decays at a significant distance from its production point into two leptons or into five or more charged particles. This analysis uses a data sample of proton-proton collisions at s√ = 8 TeV corresponding to an...
Measurement of the correlation between flow harmonics of different order in lea...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationCorrelations between the elliptic or triangular flow coefficients vm (m=2 or 3) and other flow harmonics vn (n=2 to 5) are measured using sNN−−−−√=2.76 TeV Pb+Pb collision data collected in 2010 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated lumonisity of 7 μb−1. The vm-vn correlations are measured in midrapidity as a function of centrality, and, for events within the same centrality interva...
Analysis of events with b-jets and a pair of leptons of the same charge in pp c...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationAn analysis is presented of events containing jets including at least one b-tagged jet, sizeable missing transverse momentum, and at least two leptons including a pair of the same electric charge, with the scalar sum of the jet and lepton transverse momenta being large. A data sample with an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb−1 of pp collisions at s√=8 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collid...
Measurement of exclusive γγ→ℓ+ℓ− production in proton--proton collisions at s√=...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationThis Letter reports a measurement of the exclusive γγ→ℓ+ℓ−(ℓ=e,μ) cross-section in proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, based on an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb−1. For the electron or muon pairs satisfying exclusive selection criteria, a fit to the dilepton acoplanarity distribution is used to extract the fiducial cross-sections. The cross-section ...
Search for metastable heavy charged particles with large ionisation energy loss...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationMany extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of charged heavy long-lived particles, such as R-hadrons or charginos. These particles, if produced at the Large Hadron Collider, should be moving non-relativistically and are therefore identifiable through the measurement of an anomalously large specific energy loss in the ATLAS pixel detector. Measuring heavy long-lived particles through their track ...
Search for supersymmetry in events containing a same-flavour opposite-sign dile...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationTwo searches for supersymmetric particles in final states containing a same-flavour opposite-sign lepton pair, jets and large missing transverse momentum are presented. The proton--proton collision data used in these searches were collected at a centre-of-mass energy s√=8 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb−1. Two leptonic production mech...
Search for a CP-odd Higgs boson decaying to Zh in pp collisions at s=8TeV with ...
Onofre, A.; Castro, Nuno Filipe Silva Fernandes; ATLAS CollaborationA search for a heavy, CP-odd Higgs boson, A, decaying into a Z boson and a 125 GeV Higgs boson, h, with the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. The search uses proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb−1. Decays of CP-even h bosons to ττ or bb pairs with the Z boson decaying to electron or muon pairs are considered, as well as h→bbh...
