Publication Open Access Search for Magnetic Monopoles and Stable High-Electric-Charge Objects in 13 Tev Proton-Proton Collisions with the ATLAS Detector(American Physical Society, 2020) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

S., Niels Bohr Institutet, Copenhagen, Denmark; Abraham, Nicola L., University of Sussex, Brighton, United KingdomA search for magnetic monopoles and high-electric-charge objects is presented using 34.4 fb-1 of 13 TeV pp collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC during 2015 and 2016. The considered signature is based upon high ionization in the transition radiation tracker of the inner detector associated with a pencil-shape energy deposit in the electromagnetic calorimeter. The data were collected by a dedicated trigger based on the tracker high-threshold hit capability. The results are interpreted in models of Drell-Yan pair production of stable particles with two spin hypotheses (0 and 1/2) and masses ranging from 200 to 4000 GeV. The search improves by approximately a factor of 5 the constraints on the direct production of magnetic monopoles carrying one or two Dirac magnetic charges and stable objects with electric charge in the range 20≤|z|≤60 and extends the charge range to 60<|z|≤100. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access ATLAS data quality operations and performance for 2015-2018 data-taking(Institute of Physics Publishing [email protected], 2020) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

Before being certified for physics analysis at computer centres worldwide, the data must be scrutinised to ensure they are clean from any hardware or software related issues that may compromise their integrity. Prompt identification of these issues permits fast action to investigate, correct and potentially prevent future such problems that could render the data unusable. This is achieved through the monitoring of detector-level quantities and reconstructed collision event characteristics at key stages of the data processing chain. This paper presents the monitoring and assessment procedures in place at ATLAS during 2015-2018 data-taking. Through the continuous improvement of operational procedures, ATLAS achieved a high data quality efficiency, with 95.6% of the recorded proton-proton collision data collected at s=13 TeV certified for physics analysis. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access Measurement of the Lund Jet Plane Using Charged Particles in 13 TeV Proton-Proton Collisions with the ATLAS Detector(American Physical Society [email protected], 2020) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

There have been many measurements of jet substructure at the LHC and previous colliders, but the targeted observables mix physical effects from various origins. Based on a recent proposal to factorize physical effects, this Letter presents a double-differential cross-section measurement of the Lund jet plane using 139 fb-1 of s=13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector using jets with transverse momentum above 675 GeV. The measurement uses charged particles to achieve a fine angular resolution and is corrected for acceptance and detector effects. Several parton shower Monte Carlo models are compared with the data. No single model is found to be in agreement with the measured data across the entire plane. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access Search for Heavy Higgs Bosons Decaying into Two Tau Leptons with the ATLAS Detector Using pp Collisions at s =13 TeV(American Physical Society [email protected],[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],[email protected], 2020) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

The search for heavy resonances is performed over the mass range 0.2-2.5 TeV for the τ+τ-decay with at least one τ-lepton decaying into final states with hadrons. The data are in good agreement with the background prediction of the standard model. In the Mh125 scenario of the minimal supersymmetric standard model, values of tanβ>8 and tanβ>21 are excluded at the 95% confidence level for neutral Higgs boson masses of 1.0 and 1.5 TeV, respectively, where tanβ is the ratio of the vacuum expectation values of the two Higgs doublets. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access CP Properties of Higgs Boson Interactions with Top Quarks in the t t ¯ H and tH Processes Using H →γγ with the ATLAS Detector(American Physical Society [email protected],[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],[email protected], 2020) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

Higgs bosons are identified via the diphoton decay channel (H→γγ), and their production in association with a top quark pair (tt¯H) or single top quark (tH) is studied. The analysis uses 139 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Assuming a CP-even coupling, the tt¯H process is observed with a significance of 5.2 standard deviations. The measured cross section times H→γγ branching ratio is 1.64-0.36+0.38(stat)-0.14+0.17(sys) fb, and the measured rate for tt¯H is 1.43-0.31+0.33(stat)-0.15+0.21(sys) times the Standard Model expectation. The tH production process is not observed and an upper limit on its rate of 12 times the Standard Model expectation is set. A CP-mixing angle greater (less) than 43 (-43)° is excluded at 95% confidence level. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access Search for Heavy Resonances Decaying into a Photon and a Hadronically Decaying Higgs Boson in pp Collisions at s =13 TeV with the ATLAS Detector(American Physical Society, 2020) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1. The analysis is performed by reconstructing hadronically decaying Higgs boson (H→bb¯) candidates as single large-radius jets. A novel algorithm using information about the jet constituents in the center-of-mass frame of the jet is implemented to identify the two b quarks in the single jet. No significant excess of events is observed above the expected background. Upper limits are set on the production cross-section times branching fraction for narrow spin-1 resonances decaying into a Higgs boson and a photon in the resonance mass range from 0.7 to 4 TeV, cross-section times branching fractions are excluded between 11.6 fb and 0.11 fb at a 95% confidence level. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access Observation and Measurement of Forward Proton Scattering in Association with Lepton Pairs Produced via the Photon Fusion Mechanism at ATLAS(American Physical Society, 2020) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

The scattered proton is detected by the ATLAS Forward Proton spectrometer, while the leptons are reconstructed by the central ATLAS detector. Proton-proton collision data recorded in 2017 at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV are analyzed, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 14.6 fb-1. A total of 57 (123) candidates in the ee+p (μμ+p) final state are selected, allowing the background-only hypothesis to be rejected with a significance exceeding 5 standard deviations in each channel. Proton-tagging techniques are introduced for cross-section measurements in the fiducial detector acceptance, corresponding to σee+p=11.0±2.6(stat)±1.2(syst)±0.3(lumi) and σμμ+p=7.2±1.6(stat)±0.9(syst)±0.2(lumi) fb in the dielectron and dimuon channel, respectively. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access Performance of the ATLAS RPC detector and Level-1 muon barrel trigger at √s = 13 TeV(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2021) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

S., Niels Bohr Institutet, Copenhagen, Denmark; Abraham, Nicola L., University of Sussex, Brighton, United Kingdom; Abramowicz, Halina, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv-Yafo, IsraelThe ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) employs a trigger system consisting of a first-level hardware trigger (L1) and a software-based high-level trigger. The L1 muon trigger system selects muon candidates, assigns them to the correct LHC bunch crossing and classifies them into one of six transverse-momentum threshold classes. The L1 muon trigger system uses resistive-plate chambers (RPCs) to generate the muon-induced trigger signals in the central (barrel) region of the ATLAS detector. The ATLAS RPCs are arranged in six concentric layers and operate in a toroidal magnetic field with a bending power of 1.5 to 5.5 Tm. The RPC detector consists of about 3700 gas volumes with a total surface area of more than 4000 m2. This paper reports on the performance of the RPC detector and L1 muon barrel trigger using 60.8 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment in 2018 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Detector and trigger performance are studied using Z boson decays into a muon pair. Measurements of the RPC detector response, efficiency, and time resolution are reported. Measurements of the L1 muon barrel trigger efficiencies and rates are presented, along with measurements of the properties of the selected sample of muon candidates. Measurements of the RPC currents, counting rates and mean avalanche charge are performed using zero-bias collisions. Finally, RPC detector response and efficiency are studied at different high voltage and front-end discriminator threshold settings in order to extrapolate detector response to the higher luminosity expected for the High Luminosity LHC. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Open Access Two-particle Bose–Einstein correlations in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV measured with the ATLAS detector at the LHC(Springer Nature, 2022) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

Data were collected in a special low-luminosity configuration with a minimum-bias trigger and a high-multiplicity track trigger, accumulating integrated luminosities of 151 μ b- 1 and 8.4 nb- 1, respectively. The BEC are measured for pairs of like-sign charged particles, each with | η| < 2.5 , for two kinematic ranges: the first with particle pT> 100 MeV and the second with particle pT> 500 MeV. The BEC parameters, characterizing the source radius and particle correlation strength, are investigated as functions of charged-particle multiplicity (up to 300) and average transverse momentum of the pair (up to 1.5 GeV). The double-differential dependence on charged-particle multiplicity and average transverse momentum of the pair is also studied. The BEC radius is found to be independent of the charged-particle multiplicity for high charged-particle multiplicity (above 100), confirming a previous observation at lower energy. This saturation occurs independent of the transverse momentum of the pair. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Publication Metadata only Observation of an Excess of Dicharmonium Events in the Four-Muon Final State with the ATLAS Detector(American Physical Society, 2023) Aad, Georges; Abbott, Brad K.; Abbott, D.

Two decay channels, J=ψ þ J=ψ → 4μ and J=ψ þ ψ ð2SÞ → 4μ, are studied. Backgrounds are estimated based on a hybrid approach involving Monte Carlo simulations and data-driven methods. Statistically significant excesses with respect to backgrounds dominated by the single parton scattering are seen in the di-J=ψ channel consistent with a narrow resonance at 6.9 GeV and a broader structure at lower mass. A statistically significant excess is also seen in the J=ψ þ ψ ð2SÞ channel. The fitted masses and decay widths of the structures are reported. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
