mass measurement in the ATLAS experiment
نویسنده
چکیده
A precise measurement of the mass of the W boson will be essential to provide improved indirect constraints, e.g. on the Higgs boson mass. Using new methods developed for this challenging measurement, the performance expected is presented, evaluating various sources of systematic uncertainties, both of experimental and theoretical nature. The focus of this contribution will be on the expectation for the initial data taking and results will be shown for an integrated luminos-ity of 15 pb −1. Prospects on the total uncertainties which may be obtained with an integrated luminosity of 10 fb −1 will be given.

We discuss the feasibility of the observation of the signal from B c mesons in the ATLAS experiment of the LHC collider at a luminosity of ≈ 10 33 cm −2 s −1. In particular we address the decay mode B c →J/ψπ followed by the leptonic decay J/ψ→µ + µ − , which should permit an accurate measurement of the B c mass. We performed a Monte Carlo study of the signal and background concluding that a pr...

A combination of top-quark mass measurements performed by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC is presented. The datasets used correspond to an integrated luminosity per experiment of up to 4.9 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The combination includes measurements in the tt̄ → lepton+jets, tt̄ → di-lepton and tt̄ → all jets channels. The resulting combined ...

The measurement of the t ¯ t production cross-section in the single-lepton channel in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy √ s =7 TeV is presented. The analysis is based on a multivariate discriminant distribution in 3, 4 and ≥ 5 jet bins using three kinematic variables and b-tagging information. With a data sample of about 35 pb −1 recorded by ATLAS in 2010 the inclusive top quark producti...
