Journal ArticleDOI

Search for high-mass resonances decaying to dilepton final states in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +2918 more
- 23 Nov 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider is used to search for high-mass resonances decaying to an electron-positron pair or a muon-antimuon pair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstruction of hadronic decay products of tau leptons with the ATLAS experiment

Georges Aad, +2859 more
- 25 May 2016 - 
TL;DR: The reconstructed hadrons are used to classify the decay mode and to calculate the visible four-momentum of reconstructed tau candidates, significantly improving the resolution with respect to the calibration in the existing tau reconstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of boosted, hadronically decaying W bosons and comparisons with ATLAS data taken at √s = 8 TeV

Georges Aad, +2850 more
- 17 Mar 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed study of techniques for identifying boosted, hadronically decaying W bosons using 20.3 fb −¹ of proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy √s = 8 TeV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for a light Higgs boson decaying to long-lived weakly interacting particles in proton-proton collisions at √s=7TeV with the atlas detector

Georges Aad, +3052 more
- 19 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: No excess of events is observed above the expected background and limits on the Higgs boson production times branching ratio to weakly interacting, long-lived particles are derived as a function of the particle proper decay length.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for FCNC single top-quark production at √s=7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Georges Aad, +3022 more
- 12 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a search for the production of single top-quarks via flavour-changing neutral currents is presented, using data collected with the ATLAS detector at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 7 TeV.
