    Physics and technology of the Next Linear Collider: a report submitted to Snowmass '96

    No full text
    We present the current expectations for the design and physics program of an e+e- linear collider of center of mass energy 500 GeV -- 1 TeV. We review the experiments that would be carried out at this facility and demonstrate its key role in exploring physics beyond the Standard Model over the full range of theoretical possibilities. We then show the feasibility of constructing this machine, by reviewing the current status of linear collider technology and by presenting a precis of our `zeroth-order' design

    International audienceThis Letter reports the observation of WWWWWW production and a measurement of its cross section using 139 fb1^{-1} of proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events with two same-sign leptons (electrons or muons) and at least two jets, as well as events with three charged leptons, are selected. A multivariate technique is then used to discriminate between signal and background events. Events from WWWWWW production are observed with a significance of 8.0 standard deviations, where the expectation is 5.4 standard deviations. The inclusive WWWWWW production cross section is measured to be 820±100(stat)±80(syst)820 \pm 100\,\text{(stat)} \pm 80\,\text{(syst)} fb, approximately 2.6 standard deviations from the predicted cross section of 511±18511 \pm 18 fb calculated at next-to-leading-order QCD and leading-order electroweak accuracy
