Observation of a new particle in the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC

Georges Aad, +2967 more
- 17 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in proton-proton collisions with the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented, which has a significance of 5.9 standard deviations, corresponding to a background fluctuation probability of 1.7×10−9.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined Measurement of the Higgs Boson Mass in pp Collisions at √s=7 and 8 TeV with the ATLAS and CMS Experiments

Georges Aad, +5120 more
TL;DR: A measurement of the Higgs boson mass is presented based on the combined data samples of the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the CERN LHC in the H→γγ and H→ZZ→4ℓ decay channels.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ATLAS Simulation Infrastructure

Georges Aad, +2585 more
TL;DR: The simulation software for the ATLAS Experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is being used for large-scale production of events on the LHC Computing Grid, including supporting the detector description, interfacing the event generation, and combining the GEANT4 simulation of the response of the individual detectors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Searching for exotic particles in high-energy physics with deep learning

TL;DR: It is shown that deep-learning methods need no manually constructed inputs and yet improve the classification metric by as much as 8% over the best current approaches, demonstrating that deep learning approaches can improve the power of collider searches for exotic particles.

Expected Performance of the ATLAS Experiment - Detector, Trigger and Physics

Georges Aad, +2604 more
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed study of the expected performance of the ATLAS detector is presented, together with the reconstruction of tracks, leptons, photons, missing energy and jets, along with the performance of b-tagging and the trigger.
