BPHYConference noteBs to J/psi phi Run-2   Full Title: Measurement of the CP violation phase $\phi_{s}$ in $B_{s} \rightarrow J/\psi \phi$ decay in ATLAS at 13 TeV

Abstract: A measurement of the $B_{s}$ decay parameters using 80.5 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected by the ATLAS detector from $13$ TeV $pp$ collisions at the LHC is presented. The measured parameters include the CP-violating phase $\phi_{s}$, the decay width $\Gamma_{s}$ and the width difference $\Delta\Gamma_{s}$ between the $B_{s}$ meson mass eigenstates. The values measured for the physical parameters are statistically combined with those from 19.2 fb$^{-1}$ of 7 TeV and 8 TeV data, leading to the following: $\phi_{s}=-0.076\pm 0.034$ (stat.) $\pm 0.019$ (syst.) rad, $\Delta\Gamma_{s } = 0.068 \pm 0.004$ (stat.) $\pm 0.002$ (syst.) ps$^{-1}$, $\Gamma_{s } = 0.669 \pm 0.001$ (stat.) $\pm 0.001$ (syst.) ps$^{-1}$. Results for $\phi_{s}$ and $\Delta\Gamma_{s}$ are also presented as 68% likelihood contours in the $\phi_{s}$--$\Delta\Gamma_{s}$ plane. The transversity amplitudes and corresponding strong phases are also measured in this decay channel. All measurements are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions.

EXOTPaperResolved low mass dijet resonance search with ISRFull Title: Search for low-mass resonances decaying into two jets and produced in association with a photon using $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s } = 13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

Abstract: A search is performed for localised excesses in dijet mass distributions of low-dijet-mass events produced in association with a high transverse energy photon. The search uses up to 79.8 fb$^{-1}$ of LHC proton-proton collisions collected by the ATLAS experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV during 2015-2017. Two variants are presented: one which makes no jet flavour requirements and one which requires both jets to be tagged as $b$-jets. The observed mass distributions are consistent with multi-jet processes in the Standard Model. The data are used to set upper limits on the production cross-section for a benchmark $Z^\prime$ model and, separately, on generic Gaussian-shape contributions to the mass distributions, extending the current ATLAS constraints on dijet resonances to the mass range between 225 and 1100 GeV.

EXOTConference noteLow mass boosted di-b-jet resonances with an extra jetFull Title: Search for boosted resonances decaying to two b-quarks and produced in association with a jet at $\sqrt{s } = 13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

Abstract: A search for new resonances decaying into a pair of bottom quarks in the merged regime is reported using an integrated luminosity of 80.5~\ifb of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. For the resonance to be merged, an extra jet with high transverse momentum is required. The mass range from 70 to 230 GeV is inspected. For the Standard Model Higgs boson, the observed signal strength is $\mu_{H } = 5.8 \pm 3.1~\text{(stat.)}~\pm1.9~\text{(syst.)}~\pm 1.7~\text{(th.)}$, consistent with the background-only hypothesis at $1.6$ standard deviations. No evidence of a significant excess of events beyond the expected background is found and limits on leptophobic $Z^\prime$ bosons with democratic axial couplings to all quark generations are set in the probed mass range.

EXOTConference noteMET + H search with H to bbFull Title: Search for Dark Matter Produced in Association with a Higgs Boson Decaying to $b\bar{b}$ at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV with the ATLAS Detector using 79.8 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions

Abstract: A search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson decaying to $b$-quarks is performed using $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}= 13\,$TeV. The dataset has an integrated luminosity of 79.8$\,$fb$^{-1}$ and was recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Selected collision events comprise large missing transverse momentum and either two $b$-tagged small radius jets or a single large radius jet containing two $b$-tagged subjets. The reconstruction of these subjets is based on a jet algorithm that uses inner detector tracks as inputs and a radius parameter that decreases as the subjet transverse momentum increases. The observed data are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions. The results are interpreted in the context of a simplified model ($Z^{\prime}$-2HDM) which describes the interaction of dark matter and Standard Model particles via new heavy mediator particles. Masses of the $Z^{\prime}$ are excluded up to $2.8\,$TeV depending on the choices for other model parameters.

EXOTConference noteSingle VLQ search B->bH(gg)Full Title: Search for single vector-like B quarks decaying to a Higgs boson and a bottom quark with the Higgs decaying to a pair of photons

Abstract: A search is presented for single production of a vector-like $B$ quark that decays into a Higgs boson and a $b$ quark. The search uses a dataset corresponding to 79.8 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV collected during 2015-2017 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The analysis focuses on the presence of a Higgs boson that decays into two photons, a high-momentum $b$-jet and a forward jet, characteristic of $t$-channel production of the signal process. The main background process is non-resonant diphoton production, with additional small contributions from Standard Model processes containing $H\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$ decays. No significant excess above the background expectation is observed, and upper limits on the signal production cross section are set as a function of the $B$-quark mass. Assuming a generalized coupling $\kappa_B = 0.5$ and doublet branching ratios of 50% for $B\rightarrow Hb$ and $B\rightarrow Zb$, $B$ quarks with masses less than 1210 GeV are excluded at the 95% confidence level.

EXOTConference noteResonance search in the VV hadronic final stateFull Title: Search for hadronic diboson resonances in 79 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Abstract: Narrow resonances decaying into $WW$, $WZ$ or $ZZ$ boson pairs are searched for in 79.8 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton data at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider from 2015 to 2017. The diboson system is reconstructed using pairs of high transverse momentum, large-radius jets build from a combination of calorimeter- and tracker-inputs tagged as compatible with the hadronic decay of a boosted $W$ or $Z$ boson, using jet mass and substructure properties. The search covers diboson resonances with masses in the range 1.2 TeV - 5.0 TeV. No significant deviations from the background expectations are seen. Exclusion limits at the $95 confidence level are set on the production cross section times branching ratio to dibosons for a range of theories beyond the Standard Model, with the highest lower limit on the mass of a new gauge boson at 4.15 TeV in the context of mass-degenerate resonances that couple predominantly to bosons.

The search uses proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to 79.8 fb$^{-1}$of integrated luminosity recorded in 2015, 2016 and 2017 by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The analysis focuses on the$N^0$and$L^\pm$decays with intermediate$W$bosons and yielding two final-state light leptons (electron or muon) of different flavor and charge combinations, with at least two jets and large missing transverse momentum in the final state. The search is optimized in six channels distinguished by the flavor combination and charge product of the final state lepton pair, where same charge or opposite charge final states are considered. Good agreement is observed between the number of events in data and Standard Model predictions. The results are translated into exclusion limits on heavy lepton$m(N^0, L^\pm)$masses, where$N^0$and$L^\pm$are considered mass-degenerate. The observed lower 95 % confidence level limit on the mass of the type-III seesaw heavy leptons, where the branching fractions to all lepton flavors are assumed to be equal, is 560 GeV.

Dijet invariant mass distributions ranging from$0.22-6.3$TeV in events with at least one isolated lepton ($e$or$\mu$) are searched for excesses above background expectations. Selecting events based on the presence of a lepton can probe lower$m_{jj}$than traditional inclusive dijet searches and targets a large range of new physics models with a final-state lepton. Signatures of such processes include associated production of a$W$or$Z$boson. No statistically significant deviation from the background hypothesis is found. In the absence of signals indicating the presence of new physics, limits are calculated based on generic Gaussian signals with a width ranging from that determined by the detector resolution to$15\%$of the resonance mass. Contributions from a signal with effective cross-section ranging from$50$fb to$0.1$fb are excluded in the mass range between 0.25 TeV and 6 TeV.

The data were collected in 2015, 2016 and 2017 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 79.8 fb$^{-1}$. As no excess of events above the Standard Model prediction is observed, the results are used to set upper limits on the$W^\prime$boson cross-section times branching ratio to an electron or muon and a neutrino as a function of the$W^\prime$mass. Assuming a$W^\prime$boson with the same couplings as the Standard Model$W$boson,$W^\prime$masses below 5.6 TeV are excluded at the 95\% confidence level.

The combination is based on the analyses of the Higgs boson decay modes$H \to \gamma\gamma$,$ZZ^\ast$,$WW^\ast$,$\tau\tau$,$b\bar{b}$,$\mu\mu$, searches for decays into invisible final states, and on measurements of off-shell Higgs boson production. Up to$79.8$fb$^{-1}$of proton--proton collision data collected at$\sqrt{s}= $13 TeV with the ATLAS detector are used. Results are presented for the gluon fusion and vector-boson fusion processes, and for associated production with vector bosons or top quarks. The combined measurement yields an observed (expected) significance for the vector-boson fusion production process of$6.5\sigma$($5.3\sigma$). This single-experiment observation follows an earlier observation in the combination of ATLAS and CMS measurements. Measurements in kinematic regions defined within the simplified template cross section framework are also shown. The results are interpreted in terms of modifiers applied to the Standard Model couplings of the Higgs boson to other particles, and are used to set exclusion limits on parameters in two Higgs doublet models and in the simplified Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. No significant deviations from Standard Model predictions are observed.

The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79.8$\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$were collected in proton-proton collisions during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. For a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV, an excess of events over the expected background from other Standard Model processes is found with an observed (expected) significance of 4.9 (4.3) standard deviations. A combination with the results from other searches in Run 1 and in Run 2 for the Higgs boson in the$b\bar{b}$decay mode is performed, which yields an observed (expected) significance of 5.4 (5.5) standard deviations, thus providing direct observation of the Higgs boson decay into$b$-quarks. The ratio of the measured event yield for a Higgs boson decaying into$b\bar{b}$to the Standard Model expectation is$1.01 \pm 0.12 \mathrm{(stat.)} ^{+0.16}_{-0.15} \mathrm{(syst.)}$. Additionally, a combination of Run 2 results searching for the Higgs boson produced in association with a vector boson yields an observed (expected) significance of 5.3 (4.8) standard deviations.

The cross sections of Higgs boson production through gluon--gluon fusion, vector-boson fusion, and in association with a vector boson or a top-quark pair are measured. Measurements of the Higgs boson production divided further into kinematic regions, called simplified template cross sections, are also reported. Additionally, the cross section for the production of the Higgs boson decaying to two isolated photons is measured in a fiducial phase space designed to closely match the ATLAS detector acceptance, and is found to be 60.4$\pm$6.1 (stat.)$\pm$6.0 (exp.)$\pm$0.3 (theo.) fb, in agreement with the Standard Model prediction of 63.5$\pm$3.3 fb. Finally, the fiducial cross section is measured differentially in bins of several kinematic observables with sensitivity to properties of the Higgs boson. Among these, the number of$b$-jets produced in association with the Higgs boson is measured to probe Higgs production in association with heavy flavor hadrons.

No significant excess is observed above the expected background. The observed upper limit on the cross section times branching ratio is$2.1$times the Standard Model prediction at$95$\% confidence level for a Higgs boson mass of$125$GeV, while the expected limit in the absence of a$H \to \mu\mu$signal was$2.0$.

In the supersymmetric scenarios considered the bottom-squarks decay to a$b$-quark and the second lightest neutralino,$\tilde{b}_{1} \rightarrow b + \tilde{\chi}^{0}_{2}$. The$\tilde{\chi}^{0}_{2}$is assumed to subsequently decay with$100\%$branching ratio to the Standard-Model-like Higgs boson ($h$) and the lightest neutralino:$\tilde{\chi}^{0}_{2} \rightarrow h + \tilde{\chi}^{0}_{1}$. The$\tilde{\chi}^{0}_{1}$is assumed to be the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) and is stable. Two signal mass configurations are targeted: the first has a constant LSP mass of$60\,\mathrm{GeV}$; and the second has a constant mass difference between the$\tilde{\chi}^{0}_{2}$and$\tilde{\chi}^{0}_{1}$of$130\,\mathrm{GeV}$. The final states considered contain zero leptons, three or more$b$-jets, and large missing transverse momentum. No significant excess of events over the Standard Model background expectation is observed in any of the signal regions considered. Limits at the$95\%$confidence level are placed in the simplified models considered, and bottom-squarks with mass up to$1400\,\mathrm{GeV}$are excluded.

The data analysed correspond to 79.8$\text{fb}^{-1}$of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of$\sqrt{s}= 13$TeV delivered by the LHC. The process studied is the production of top-quark pairs, where one top quark decays into a pair of opposite-sign different-flavour charged leptons and an up-type quark, while the other decays semileptonically according to the Standard Model. The signature of the signal is thus characterised by the presence of three charged leptons, a light jet and a$b$-jet. A multivariate discriminant is deployed and its distribution used as input to extract the signal strength. In the absence of a signal, an upper limit on the branching ratio of${\cal B}(t \to \ell \ell q) < 1.86 \times 10^{-5}\$ is set at 95% confidence level.
