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

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.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Test of lepton universality using b^{+}k^{+}ℓ^{+}ℓ^{-} decays

Roel Aaij, +701 more
TL;DR: The value of the ratio of branching fractions for the dilepton invariant mass squared range 1 < q(2) < 6 GeV(2)/c(4) is measured to be 0.745(-0.074)(+0.090)(stat) ± 0.036(syst).
Journal ArticleDOI

LHCb detector performance

Roel Aaij, +703 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of the various LHCb sub-detectors and the trigger system are described, using data taken from 2010 to 2012, and it is shown that the design criteria of the experiment have been met.
