Abstract

A measurement of b-hadron pair production is presented,based on a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 11.4 fb^-1 of proton-proton collisions recorded at sqrtS = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The fiducial cross section is measured to be 17.7 +/- 0.1(stat.) +/- 2.0(syst.) nb. A number of normalised differential cross sections are also measured, and compared to predictions from the Pythia8, Herwig++, MadGraph5_aMC@NLO+Pythia8 and Sherpa event generators, providing new constraints on heavy flavour production. See DOI: JHEP 11 (2017) 062 for more details. Events are selected in which a b-hadron is reconstruc- ted in a decay channel containing JPsi -> mumu, and a second b-hadron is reconstructed in a decay channel containing a muon. Results are presented in a fiducial volume defined by kin- ematic requirements on three muons based on those used in the analysis.

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 production cross section of events with two isolated photons in the final state, in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV, by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The full data set collected in 2011, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.9 fb^-1, is used. The amount of background, from hadronic jets and isolated electrons, is estimated with data-driven techniques and subtracted.
