Description

A study of WW/WZ production in the semileptonic final state using proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector is presented. The cross section is measured in the WW/WZ -> lepton nu q¯q? decay channel where the lepton can be a muon or an electron. The measured cross section is consistent with the Standard Model expectation.
