    Measurements of ttˉt\bar{t} differential cross-sections of highly boosted top quarks decaying to all-hadronic final states in pppp collisions at s=13\sqrt{s}=13\, TeV using the ATLAS detector

    No full text
    Measurements are made of differential cross-sections of highly boosted pair-produced top quarks as a function of top-quark and ttˉt\bar{t} system kinematic observables using proton--proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of s=13\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV. The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.136.1 fb1^{-1}, recorded in 2015 and 2016 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Events with two large-radius jets in the final state, one with transverse momentum pT>500p_{\rm T} > 500 GeV and a second with pT>350p_{\rm T}>350 GeV, are used for the measurement. The top-quark candidates are separated from the multijet background using jet substructure information and association with a bb-tagged jet. The measured spectra are corrected for detector effects to a particle-level fiducial phase space and a parton-level limited phase space, and are compared to several Monte Carlo simulations by means of calculated χ2\chi^2 values. The cross-section for ttˉt\bar{t} production in the fiducial phase-space region is 292±7 (stat)±76(syst)292 \pm 7 \ \rm{(stat)} \pm 76 \rm{(syst)} fb, to be compared to the theoretical prediction of 384±36384 \pm 36 fb

    Observation of WWWWWW Production in pppp Collisions at s\sqrt s =13  TeV with the ATLAS Detector

    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
