In the Standard Model of particle physics, the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the complex Higgs field gives rise to the massive Higgs boson and three Goldstone bosons, which represent the longitudinal degrees of freedom of the $W^{\pm}$ and $Z$ bosons. It is therefore critical to study the interactions of longitudinally-polarized $W^{\pm}$ and $Z$ bosons ($W^{\pm}_0$ and $Z_0$). Here, we...
The production of a single electroweak vector boson in association with jets (V+jets) is one of the fundamental processes at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment. The leptonic decay modes of this process provides a clean experimental signature for measuring the electroweak sector of the Standard Model and the perturbative QCD accuracy in multi-jets final states.
In the talk, we will...
The Standard Model predicts self interactions between gauge bosons, including triple gauge boson couplings (TGC) and quartic gauge boson couplings (QGC). In addition, the interactions between the Higgs boson and gauge bosons are also of interest. In ATLAS group, events with four leptons (electrons or muons) in the final state are used to search for the production of WWZ -> lvlvll. The total...
WWW production was recently observed by the ATLAS collaboration using the full Run II data set with an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV. These first observation and cross-section measurements are presented. Measurements are performed in two final states. Events with two same-sign electrons or muons in association with two jets as well as events with three charged...
