Abstract

CERN-LHC. This Letter presents a measurement of WZ production in 1.02 fb^-1 of pp collision data at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2011. Doubly leptonic decay events are selected with electrons, muons and missing transverse momentum in the final state. In total 71 candidates are observed, with a background expectation of 12.1 +/- 1.4(stat.) +4.1/-2.0(syst) events. The total cross section for WZ production for Z gamma^* masses within the range 66 GeV to 116 GeV is determined to be sigma_WZ^tot = 20.5 +3.1/-2.8(stat.) +1.4/-1.3(syst.) +0.9/-0.8(lumi.)pb, which is consistent with the Standard Model expectation of 17.3 +1.3/-0.8 pb. Limits on anomalous triple gauge boson couplings are extracted. Data taken from the RIVET analysis code.

CERN-LHC. Measurements of the cross section for W+- plus Z0 production in proton proton collisions at a centre-of mass energy of 7 TeV. The data sample used, collected during 2011, has a total integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb-1 with 317 candidate events in the double leptonic decay final state with electrons, muons and missing transverse momentum. The total cross section is presented together with fiducial cross sections in a common phase space region.

CERN-LHC. Measurement of the inclusive leptonic production cross sections for W+- and Z0/GAMMA* from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The data set has a total integrated luminosity of 35 pb-1 collected in 2010. The cross sections are given as a function of (pseudo)rapidity for (W+-)Z0 production and evaluated over a fiducial kinematic range and extrapolated to full phase space. Total cross sections are derived using the combined muon and electron decay modes assuming lepton universality. The correlations in systematic uncertainties are given for the 30 sources of systematic error defined in the text.

CERN-LHC. Measurements of the cross section for W+W- production in proton proton collisions at a centre-of mass energy of 7 TeV. The data sample used, collected during 2011, has a total integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb-1 with 1325 candidate events in the double leptonic decay final state with electrons, muons and missing transverse momentum. The total cross section is presented together with fiducial cross sections in a phase space region, defined for each decay channel.
