LHC Semiplenary Session
- Pietro Vischia (Universite Catholique de Louvain (UCL) (BE))
Many theories beyond the Standard Model (BSM) predict new phenomena accessible by the LHC. Searches for new physics models are performed using the ATLAS experiment at the LHC focusing on exotic signatures that can be realized in several BSM theories, excluding supersymmetry. The results of recent searches on 13 TeV data, with the exception of Dark Matter signatures, and their interplay and...
CMS, as one of the two LHC muti-purpose experiments, has recorded a large amount of pp-collision data at sqrt(s)=13 TeV in Run-2. This unprecendented dataset is used to search for new physics in a large variety of final states.Heavy vector bosons are predicted by many models and serve as a candle for high-pT physics.Leptoquarks are a potential explaination for the observations in the flavour...
The top quark is the heaviest known fundamental particle. As it is the only quark that decays before it hadronizes, it provides the unique opportunity to probe the properties of bare quarks at the Large Hadron Collider. This talk will present highlights of a few recent precision measurements of the top quark using 13 TeV collision data with the ATLAS experiment: top-quark pair and single top...
Precision electroweak measurements are among the main goals of the Large Hadron Collider physics program. In this talk the most recent results obtained by the CMS experiment with Drell-Yan, W and multi-bosons events will be reviewed. These include the measurement of the electroweak mixing angle, the differential distributions and decay angular coefficient in Drell-Yan events, W mass related...
The production of multiple electroweak bosons at the LHC constitutes a stringent test of the electroweak sector and provide a model-independent means to search for new physics at the TeV scale. In this talk, we present recent results for inclusive WW, WZ, ZZ and Z$\gamma$ production in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt s$ = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment. The data are sensitive to...
