Measurement of the production cross section for Z/γ* in association with jets in pp collisions at √s=7TeV with the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +3058 more
- 28 Feb 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the production of jets of particles in association with a Z/gamma* boson, in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector, was analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for the Higgs Boson in the H→WW(*)→l+νl–ν¯ decay channel in pp collisions at s=7TeV with the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +3043 more
Abstract: A search for the Higgs boson has been performed in the H -> WW(*()) -> l+vl-(v) over bar channel (l = e/mu) with an integrated luminosity of 2.05 fb(-1) of pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No significant excess of events over the expected background is observed and limits on the Higgs boson production cross section are derived for a Higgs boson mass in the range 110 GeV< m(H) < 300 GeV. The observations exclude the presence of a standard model Higgs boson with a mass 145 < m(H) < 206 GeV at 95% confidence level.

Search for supersymmetry in events with large missing transverse momentum, jets, and at least one tau lepton in 20 fb-1 of s \sqrt{s} = 8 TeV proton-proton collision data with the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +2922 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a search for supersymmetry in events with large missing transverse momentum, jets, at least one hadronically decaying tau lepton and zero or one additional light leptons (electron/muon), has been performed using 20.3 fb(-1) of proton-proton collision data at root s = 8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider.
Journal ArticleDOI

A search for prompt lepton-jets in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +2899 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a search is presented for a new light boson with a mass of about 1 GeV and decaying promptly to jets of collimated electrons and/or muons (lepton-jets).
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies of the performance of the ATLAS detector using cosmic-ray muons

Georges Aad, +2531 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of performance studies related to combined tracking, lepton identification and the reconstruction of jets and missing transverse energy are compared to expectations based on a cosmic-ray event generator and a full simulation of the detector response.
