Abstract

CERN-LHC. This paper describes a measurement of the flavour composition of dijet events produced in pp collisions at sqrt{s}=7 TeV using the ATLAS detector. The measurement uses the full 2010 data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 39 pb^-1. Six possible combinations of light, charm and bottom jets are identified in the dijet events, where the jet flavour is defined by the presence of bottom, charm or solely light flavour hadrons in the jet. Kinematic variables, based on the properties of displaced decay vertices and optimised for jet flavour identification, are used in a multidimensional template fit to measure the fractions of these dijet flavour states as functions of the leading jet transverse momentum in the range 40 GeV to 500 GeV and jet rapidity |y| < 2.1. The fit results agree with the predictions of leading- and next-to-leading-order calculations, with the exception of the dijet fraction composed of bottom and light flavour jets, which is underestimated by all models at large transverse jet momenta. The ability to identify jets containing two b-hadrons, originating from e.g. gluon splitting, is demonstrated. The difference between bottom jet production rates in leading and subleading jets is consistent with the next-to-leading-order predictions. Datamore » taken from the RIVET analysis code.« less

Measurement of inclusive jet and dijet production in $p p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV using the ATLAS detector

Dataset Aad, Georges

CERN-LHC. Measurements of the inclusive jet and di-jet cross sections in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The analysis is based on the 2010 data sample with a total integrated luminosity of 37 pb^{-1}. The anti-KT algorithm is used for jet clustering with data given using both the parameters R=0.4 and R=0.6. Double-differential cross sections are given as a function of the inclusive jet PT in rapidity (y) bins and of the di-jet invariant mass in bins of half of the rapidity separation of the two jets (y*). Details of the systematic errors and their correlations aremore »« less
Measurement of Dijet Azimuthal Decorrelations in $p p$ Collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV

Dataset Aad, Georges

CERN-LHC. Measurement of the normalized distributions of absolute azimuthal angle difference between the two central jets with the highest transverse momenta produced in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7000 GeV. The measurement uses the complete 2010 dataset with an integrated luminosity of 36pb-1. Jets are reconstructed using the anti-kT algorithm with a radius of R=0.6 and required to have PT > 100 GeV and |y| < 2.8.
Search for magnetic monopoles in $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV $p p$ collisions with the ATLAS detector

Dataset Aad, Georges

CERN-LHC. Search for magnetic monopoles in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using data with a total integrated luminosity of 2.0 fb-1. Magnetic monopoles are characterized by large localized energy deposits in the LAr EM calorimeter (EMCLUSTER) in conjunction with a region of high ionization density in the transition radiation tracker, TRT. This record lists the efficiency for detection of such monopoles of two masses (200 and 1500 GeV) and the upper limits of the cross sections assuming production by Drell-Yan processes and in the fiducual region.

Dataset Aad, Georges

CERN-LHC. Study of the opposite charge E-MU continuum produced in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The data, collected between March and August 2011, has a total integrated luminosity of 2.08 fb-1 and is used in a search for t-channel exchange of an R-parity violating scalar top quark and is found to be consistent with the expectations from Standard Model backgrounds. Additional plots are to be found in the auxilliary material linked below.
