The mesons are reconstructed from a three-muon final state from decays, along with photons reconstructed via conversions to electron-positron pairs in the detector material. The new state is observed with a significance that exceeds 8 standard deviations. The mass difference between the new meson state and the ground-state meson is measured to be . This corresponds to a mass for the observed state of , where the last uncertainty is due to the precision of the best knowledge of the meson mass. The low mass difference value matches the theory expectations for the lowest vector state of the system, the meson. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9dq620rc Tue, 13 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Aakvaag, E Abbott, B Abdelhameed, S Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboelela, M Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Acharya, BS Ackermann, A Ackerschott, J Bourdarios, C Adam Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Tamlihat, M Ait Åkesson, TPA Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Alberghi, GL Albert, J Alberti, U Albicocco, P Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, DR Allen, JS Allen, JF Alley, CS Almazan, ER Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Fernandez, A Alvarez Cardoso, M Alves Alviggi, MG Coutinho, Y Amaral Amelung, C Amerl, M Amezza, T Amini, B Amirie, K Amirkhanov, A Amperiadou, D Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Anderson, AC Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparo, MA Bella, L Aperio Apicella, M Appelt, C Apyan, A Arakida, R Arampatzi, M Val, SJ Arbiol Arcangeletti, C https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0wp07940 This article details two studies of Higgs boson properties using the vector-boson fusion production mode and the γγjj final state. Both efforts are based on a data sample corresponding to 164 fb−1 of s=13.6$$ \sqrt{s}=13.6 $$ TeV proton-proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The first study employs matrix-element-based optimal observables to constrain CP-odd couplings beyond the Standard Model within the Standard Model Effective Field Theory framework, expressed in the Warsaw basis. The second study exploits angular distributions to probe the Higgs boson’s couplings to longitudinally and transversely polarised W and Z bosons in the production of the Higgs boson. To maximise the sensitivity, the constraints of the CP-odd couplings are combined with those from a previous analysis performed in γγjj events in a data sample of proton-proton collisions at s=13$$ \sqrt{s}=13 $$ TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1.

The upper limit at the 95% confidence level on the total signal strength, defined as the ratio of the measured cross section to the standard model (SM) prediction, corresponds to 2.5, with an expected value of 1.7 (2.8) assuming the absence (presence) of the SM signal. The strength of the signal is measured to be relative to the SM prediction. The observed significance is found to be 1.1 standard deviations whereas 1.3 are expected for the SM signal.

These lead to photon-induced interactions that are observed in ultra-peripheral collisions (UPCs), such as vector meson and lepton-pair production. The high photon flux also enables the occurrence of multiple photon-induced processes in a single collision. Presented is the first measurement of the coincident production of γ γ → μ + μ − and γ + A → ρ 0 + A in UPC Pb+Pb collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 5.02 TeV and 5.36 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The coincident ρ 0 is identified via its decay into a π + π − pair, with the selected π + π − sample also containing the non-resonant continuum contribution. The rate of the coincident process relative to the exclusive γ γ → μ + μ − process is measured differentially in intervals of forward event activity, quantified by the Zero Degree Calorimeters.

The events are selected with one charged lepton (electron or muon) and at least four jets. The differential cross-sections are presented at particle level as functions of several jet observables, including angular correlations, jet transverse momenta and invariant masses of the jets in the final state, which characterise the kinematics and dynamics of the top-antitop system and the hard QCD radiation in the system with associated jets. The typical precision is 5%–15% for the absolute differential cross-sections and 2%–4% for the normalised differential cross-sections. Next-to-leading-order and next-to-next-to-leading-order QCD predictions are found to provide an adequate description of the rate and shape of the jet-angular observables.... https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9mf0630m Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Abbott, B Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abreu, H Abulaiti, Y Acharya, BS Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Agarwala, J Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahmed, WS Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Ait Tamlihat, M Aitbenchikh, B Aizenberg, I Akbiyik, M Åkesson, TPA Akimov, AV Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Al Khoury, K Alberghi, GL Albert, J Albicocco, P Albouy, GL Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Alkakhi, W Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, JF Allendes Flores, CA Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alvarez Estevez, M Alvarez Fernandez, A Alves Cardoso, M Alviggi, MG Aly, M Amaral Coutinho, Y Ambler, A Amelung, C Amerl, M Ames, CG Amidei, D Amor Dos Santos, SP Amos, KR Ananiev, V Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Andrean, SY Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Anthony, MT Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparisi Pozo, JA Aparo, MA https://escholarship.org/uc/item/99v5x374 The ATLAS detector at the LHC recorded 0.49 nb−1 of Pb+Pb collisions and 25 pb−1 of pp collisions, both at the center-of-mass energy 5.02 TeV per nucleon pair. Recently, ATLAS also recorded 3μb−1 of Xe+Xe collisions at the center-of-mass energy 5.44 TeV, which provides a new opportunity to study the system-size dependence of the charged-hadron production in heavy-ion collisions. The large acceptance of the ATLAS detector allows to measure the spectra of charged hadrons in a wide range of pseudorapidity and transverse momentum. The nuclear modification factors R AA are constructed as a ratio of the spectra measured in Pb+Pb or Xe+Xe collisions to that measured in pp collisions. The R AA obtained in the two systems are presented for different centrality intervals and the results are discussed. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/99v5x374 Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Balek, Petr Collaboration, ATLAS https://escholarship.org/uc/item/92b9d1kq In response to the 2020 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics, the Future Circular Collider (FCC) Feasibility Study was launched as an international collaboration hosted by CERN. This report describes the FCC integrated programme, which consists of two stages: an electron-positron collider (FCC-ee) in the first phase, serving as a high-luminosity Higgs, top, and electroweak factory; followed by a proton-proton collider (FCC-hh) at the energy frontier in the second phase. The FCC-ee is designed to operate at four key centre-of-mass energies: the Z pole, the WW pair production threshold, the ZH production peak, and the top/anti-top production threshold—each delivering the highest possible luminosities to four experiments. Over 15 years of operation, FCC-ee will produce more than 6 trillion Z bosons, 200 million WW pairs, nearly 3 million Higgs bosons, and 2 million top anti-top pairs. Precise energy calibration at the Z pole and WW threshold will be achieved through... https://escholarship.org/uc/item/92b9d1kq Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Benedikt, M Zimmermann, F Auchmann, B Bartmann, W Burnet, JP Carli, C Chancé, A Craievich, P Giovannozzi, M Grojean, C Gutleber, J Hanke, K Henriques, A Janot, P Lourenço, C Mangano, M Otto, T Poole, J Rajagopalan, S Raubenheimer, T Todesco, E Ulrici, L Watson, T Wilkinson, G Abada, A Abbrescia, M Abdolmaleki, H Abidi, SH Abramov, A Adam, C Ady, M Adz̆ić, PR Agapov, I Aguglia, D Ahmed, I Aiba, M Aielli, G Akan, T Akchurin, N Akturk, D Al-Thakeel, M Alberghi, GL Alcaraz Maestre, J Aleksa, M Aleksan, R Alharthi, F Alimena, J Alimenti, A Alioli, S Alix, L Allanach, BC Allwicher, L Altintas, AA Altınlı, M Alviggi, M Ambrosio, G Amhis, Y Amiri, A Ammirabile, G Andeen, T André, KDJ Andrea, J Andreazza, A Andreini, M Andriollo, T Angel, L Angelucci, M Antusch, S Anwar, MN Apolinário, L Apollinari, G Appleby, RB Apresyan, A Apyan, Aram Apyan, Armen Arbey, A Argiento, B Ari, V Arias, S Arias Alonso, B Arnaez, O Arnaldi, R Arneodo, F Arnold, H Arrutia Sota, P Ascioti, ME Assamagan, KA Aumiller, S Aydın, G Azizi, K Azzi, P Bacchetta, N Bacci, A Bai, B Bai, Y Balconi, L Baldinelli, G Balhan, B Ball, AH Ballarino, A https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8zz686g8 The Image Sources and Credits information section was missing from this article and should have read ‘The FCC Project formally acknowledges and credits all organisations and contributors whose data and imagery form part of the basemaps used in this work.

This analysis is based on proton-proton collision data recorded at s$$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider between 2015 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1. After selecting events containing large-radius jets with high track multiplicity, the invariant mass distribution of the two highest-transverse-momentum jets is scanned to look for an excess above a data-driven estimate of the Standard Model multijet background. No significant excess of events is observed and the results are thus used to set 95% confidence-level upper limits on the production cross-section times branching ratio of the Z′ to dark quarks as a function of the Z′ mass for various dark-quark scenarios. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8br8s2cx Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Abbott, B Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abreu, H Abulaiti, Y Acharya, BS Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Agarwala, J Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahmed, WS Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Ait Tamlihat, M Aitbenchikh, B Aizenberg, I Akbiyik, M Åkesson, TPA Akimov, AV Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Al Khoury, K Alberghi, GL Albert, J Albicocco, P Albouy, GL Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Alkakhi, W Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, JF Allendes Flores, CA Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alvarez Estevez, M Alvarez Fernandez, A Alves Cardoso, M Alviggi, MG Aly, M Amaral Coutinho, Y Ambler, A Amelung, C Amerl, M Ames, CG Amidei, D Amor Dos Santos, SP Amos, KR Ananiev, V Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Andrean, SY Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Anthony, MT Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparisi Pozo, JA Aparo, MA https://escholarship.org/uc/item/890370h9 This paper presents differential cross-section measurements of events containing a charged lepton, missing transverse momentum, two b-jets, and two light jets, consistent with the W+W−bb¯$$ {W}^{+}{W}^{-}b\overline{b} $$ final state. The analysis is based on 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at s=13$$ \sqrt{s}=13 $$ TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider (2015–2018). Differential cross-sections are unfolded at particle level for a range of kinematic observables and in three kinematic regions. Both regions and observables are optimised for sensitivity to the interference between W+W−bb¯$$ {W}^{+}{W}^{-}b\overline{b} $$ produced with singly and doubly resonant top quarks. Results are compared with various theoretical predictions and deviations are observed in regions sensitive to the interference between singly and doubly resonant top-quark production.

The measurement is performed using the full Run-2 dataset, recorded from 2015 to 2018, of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13&nbsp;TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140  fb^{-1}. The fully leptonic final state with four leptons and one photon is analyzed, pp→ZZγ→ℓ^{+}ℓ^{-}ℓ^{'+}ℓ^{'-}γ with ℓ,ℓ^{'}=e or μ. This final state is measured in a fiducial region where photon final-state radiation is minimized, and the photon has a transverse momentum of p_{T}^{γ}&gt;20  GeV. Eight events are selected, with a background estimate of 0.92±0.15. This results in an observed (expected) significance of the ZZγ final state of 4.4σ (4.0σ).

Because photons do not carry color charge, they are unaffected by the medium, and thus provide information about the momentum, direction, and flavor (quark or gluon) of the asso- ciated hard-scattered parton before it begins to shower and become quenched. In particular, the presence of a high-p T photon can be used to select pp and Pb+Pb events with the same configuration before quenching, limiting the effects of quenching-induced selection biases present in other jet measurements. The large statistics pp and Pb+Pb data delivered by the LHC in 2015 allow for a detailed study of photon-tagged jet quenching effects, such as the overall parton energy loss and modified structure of the component of the shower which remains correlated with the initial parton direction (e.g. in cone).

These event shapes are defined as the Wasserstein distance between collider events and isotropic reference geometries. This distance is evaluated by solving optimal transport problems, using the ‘Energy-Mover’s Distance’. Isotropic references with cylindrical and circular symmetries are studied, to probe the symmetries of interest at hadron colliders. The novel event-shape observables defined in this way are infrared- and collinear-safe, have improved dynamic range and have greater sensitivity to isotropic radiation patterns than other event shapes. The measured event-shape variables are corrected for detector effects, and presented in inclusive bins of jet multiplicity and the scalar sum of the two leading jets’ transverse momenta.... https://escholarship.org/uc/item/78b970xq Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Abbott, B Abbott, DC Abeling, K Abidi, SH Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abreu, H Abulaiti, Y Abusleme Hoffman, AC Acharya, BS Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Adamek, L Addepalli, SV Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adorni, S Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Agarwala, J Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Aguilar-Saavedra, JA Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahmed, WS Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Ait Tamlihat, M Aitbenchikh, B Aizenberg, I Akbiyik, M Åkesson, TPA Akimov, AV Al Khoury, K Alberghi, GL Albert, J Albicocco, P Alderweireldt, S Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, A Alfonsi, F Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, S Aliev, M Alimonti, G Alkakhi, W Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allendes Flores, CA Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alvarez Estevez, M Alviggi, MG Aly, M Amaral Coutinho, Y Ambler, A Amelung, C Amerl, M Ames, CG Amidei, D Amor Dos Santos, SP Amos, KR Ananiev, V Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Andrean, SY Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Anthony, MT Antipov, E Antonelli, M Antrim, DJA Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparisi Pozo, JA Aparo, MA Aperio Bella, L Appelt, C Aranzabal, N Araujo Ferraz, V Arcangeletti, C Arce, ATH Arena, E https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7836t7bm A combination of searches for Higgs boson decays into a visible photon and a massless dark photon (H → γγd) is presented using 139 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of s$$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider.

This analysis is performed using 137 fb−1 of pp collision data collected between 2016–2018 during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider by the ATLAS detector. Displaced vertices are identified using two different secondary vertexing algorithms, including a novel “fuzzy” vertexing algorithm optimized for identifying displaced decays of heavy quarks. Separate searches are performed using each algorithm, and the expected Standard Model background is independently estimated for each search using a data-driven procedure. No significant excess is observed over the background in either case. The results are used to set 95% confidence-level limits on potential beyond-the-Standard Model physics that could produce this final state.

In this Letter the first measurements of quantum entanglement between spins in pairs of bosons are reported, using proton-proton collision data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at center-of-mass energies of 13 and 13.6&nbsp;TeV, recorded with the ATLAS detector. Measurements of angular observables sensitive to spin-density-matrix elements in the process yield coefficients and , consistent with their Standard Model predictions. A complementary hypothesis test using the full angular distribution, and relying on several Standard Model assumptions in the decays, provides substantially higher sensitivity to quantum correlations and disfavors the separable-state hypothesis at a significance of 4.7 standard deviations (expected ) relative to the entangled Standard Model hypothesis. These results provide strong evidence of quantum entanglement between massive bosons (spin qutrits) at the electroweak scale. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6cs5w4mz Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Aakvaag, E Abbott, B Abdelhameed, S Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboelela, M Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Acharya, BS Ackermann, A Bourdarios, C Adam Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Saavedra, JA Aguilar Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahuja, S Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Tamlihat, M Ait Åkesson, TPA Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Alberghi, GL Albert, J Alberti, U Albicocco, P Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, DR Allen, JS Allen, JF Alley, CS Almazan, ER Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Fernandez, A Alvarez Cardoso, M Alves Alviggi, MG Aly, M Coutinho, Y Amaral Amelung, C Amerl, M Amezza, T Amini, B Amirie, K Amirkhanov, A Amperiadou, D An, S Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Anderson, AC Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparo, MA Bella, L Aperio Apicella, M Appelt, C Apyan, A Arampatzi, M https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6bc147tz This paper presents measurements of charged-hadron spectra obtained in pp, p+Pb, and Pb+Pb collisions at s$$ \sqrt{s} $$ or sNN$$ \sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}} $$ = 5.02 TeV, and in Xe+Xe collisions at sNN$$ \sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}} $$ = 5.44 TeV.

The nuclear modification factor RpPb shows a moderate enhancement above unity with a maximum at pT ≈ 3 GeV; the enhancement is stronger in the Pb-going direction. The nuclear modification factors in both Pb+Pb and Xe+Xe collisions feature a significant, centrality-dependent suppression.

The data sets of pp, p+Pb and peripheral Pb+Pb collisions at various energies are analyzed, aiming to probe the long-range collective nature of multi-particle production in small systems. The sensitivity of the standard cumulant method to non-flow correlations is investigated by introducing the subevents method. A systematic reduction of non-flow effects is observed when using the two-subevent method. Further reduction is observed with the three-subevent method that is consistent with the results obtained with the four-subevent one.

These particles are expected to move significantly slower than the speed of light and should be identifiable by their high transverse momenta and anomalously large specific ionisation losses, dE/dx. Trajectories reconstructed solely by the inner tracking system and a dE/dx measurement in the pixel detector layers provide sensitivity to particles with lifetimes down to O$$ \mathcal{O} $$(1) ns with a mass, measured using the Bethe–Bloch relation, ranging from 100 GeV to 3 TeV. Interpretations for pair-production of R-hadrons, charginos and staus in scenarios of supersymmetry compatible with these particles being long-lived are presented, with mass limits extending considerably beyond those from previous searches in broad ranges of lifetime. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/594823qn Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Abbott, B Abbott, DC Abed Abud, A Abeling, K Abhayasinghe, DK Abidi, SH Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abreu, H Abulaiti, Y Abusleme Hoffman, AC Acharya, BS Achkar, B Adam, L Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Adamek, L Addepalli, SV Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adorni, S Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agapopoulou, C Agaras, MN Agarwala, J Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Aguilar-Saavedra, JA Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahmed, WS Ai, X Aielli, G Aizenberg, I Akatsuka, S Akbiyik, M Åkesson, TPA Akimov, AV Al Khoury, K Alberghi, GL Albert, J Albicocco, P Alconada Verzini, MJ Alderweireldt, S Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, A Alfonsi, F Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, S Aliev, M Alimonti, G Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alunno Camelia, E Alvarez Estevez, M Alviggi, MG Amaral Coutinho, Y Ambler, A Ambroz, L Amelung, C Amidei, D Amor Dos Santos, SP Amoroso, S Amos, KR Amrouche, CS Ananiev, V Anastopoulos, C Andari, N Andeen, T Anders, JK Andrean, SY Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Anthony, MT Antipov, E Antonelli, M Antrim, DJA Anulli, F Aoki, M Aparisi Pozo, JA Aparo, MA Aperio Bella, L Aranzabal, N Araujo Ferraz, V Arcangeletti, C https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5610f15z A measurement of the production of W bosons with opposite electric charges in association with two jets is presented based on 140 fb−1 of data collected by the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at s$$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 13 TeV.

The search uses 137 fb−1 of data from 13 TeV proton–proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the LHC. Multiple search regions are defined, all requiring the presence of a track reconstructed from either three or four measurements in the innermost layers of the ATLAS detector. Regions with tracks having only three measurements are further characterised by the absence or presence of a low-energy charged pion reconstructed using a dedicated algorithm, leveraging machine learning. Data-driven methods are used to estimate the background contributions in the search regions. No significant excesses are found and 95% CL lower limits are placed on the masses of charginos and τ-sleptons in the lifetime range 0.01–10 ns.

The analysis uses data from s = 13.6 TeV pp collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector between 2022 and 2024 during Run 3 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 164 fb − 1 . This search is strongly motivated by a dramatic increase of the production cross-section by up to an order of magnitude for the highest masses considered, thanks to the small increase of 0.6 TeV in centre-of-mass energy between Run 2 and Run 3. No significant excess above the Standard Model background is observed, and 95% CL upper limits are set on the production cross-section times branching ratio in several benchmark models, reaching a mass scale of 9.4 TeV. These represent the strongest exclusion limits to date on quantum black hole production. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2xs487xj Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Aakvaag, E Abbott, B Abdelhameed, S Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboelela, M Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Acharya, BS Ackermann, A Bourdarios, C Adam Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahuja, S Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Tamlihat, M Ait Åkesson, TPA Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Alberghi, GL Albert, J Alberti, U Albicocco, P Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, DR Allen, JS Allen, JF Alley, CS Almazan, ER Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Fernandez, A Alvarez Cardoso, M Alves Alviggi, MG Aly, M Coutinho, Y Amaral Amelung, C Amerl, M Amezza, T Amini, B Amirie, K Amirkhanov, A Amperiadou, D An, S Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Anderson, AC Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparo, MA Bella, L Aperio Apicella, M Appelt, C Apyan, A Arampatzi, M Val, SJ Arbiol https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2w6443qh A search for a new massive charged gauge boson, W′, is performed with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The dataset used in this analysis was collected from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s$$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 13 TeV, and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1. The reconstructed tb invariant mass is used to search for a W′ boson decaying into a top quark and a bottom quark. The result is interpreted in terms of a W′ boson with purely right-handed or left-handed chirality in a mass range of 0.5–6 TeV. Different values for the coupling of the W′ boson to the top and bottom quarks are considered, taking into account interference with single-top-quark production in the s-channel. No significant deviation from the background prediction is observed. The results are expressed as upper limits on the W′ → tb production cross-section times branching ratio as a function of the W′-boson mass and in the plane of the coupling vs the W′-boson mass. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2w6443qh Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Abbott, B Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abreu, H Abulaiti, Y Abusleme Hoffman, AC Acharya, BS Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Adamek, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Agarwala, J Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahmed, WS Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Ait Tamlihat, M Aitbenchikh, B Aizenberg, I Akbiyik, M Åkesson, TPA Akimov, AV Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Al Khoury, K Alberghi, GL Albert, J Albicocco, P Albouy, GL Alderweireldt, S Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Alkakhi, W Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, JF Allendes Flores, CA Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alvarez Estevez, M Alvarez Fernandez, A Alves Cardoso, M Alviggi, MG Aly, M Amaral Coutinho, Y Ambler, A Amelung, C Amerl, M Ames, CG Amidei, D Amor Dos Santos, SP Amos, KR Ananiev, V Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Andrean, SY Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Anthony, MT Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparisi Pozo, JA Aparo, MA https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2252c90c This search, a type not previously performed at ATLAS, uses a comparison of the production cross sections for e + μ − and e − μ + pairs to constrain physics processes beyond the Standard Model.

While the sensitivity does not yet rival that of previous determinations, this novel approach probes a very different physical situation, namely the rare hadronic t→bb¯c$$ t\to b\overline{b}c $$ decay at high momentum-transfer, rather than semileptonic B decays at low momentum-transfer. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1066f0pc Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Aakvaag, E Abbott, B Abdelhameed, S Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboelela, M Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Acharya, BS Ackermann, A Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmad, A Ahmadov, F Ahuja, S Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Ait Tamlihat, M Åkesson, TPA Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Alberghi, GL Albert, J Alberti, U Albicocco, P Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, DR Allen, JS Allen, JF Alley, CS Almazan, ER Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alvarez Fernandez, A Alves Cardoso, M Alviggi, MG Aly, M Amaral Coutinho, Y Amelung, C Amerl, M Amezza, T Amini, B Amirie, K Amirkhanov, A Amperiadou, D An, S Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Anderson, AC Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M Aoki, T Aparo, MA Aperio Bella, L Apicella, M Appelt, C Apyan, A Arampatzi, M Arbiol Val, SJ https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0wb846ht This Letter presents a measurement of prompt charged-particle production in proton-oxygen interactions at center-of-mass energy with the ATLAS detector, corresponding to of integrated luminosity.

The macroscopic effects of this radiation are an increase of the sensor leakage current, a loss of charge collection efficiency and an increase of the depletion voltage. Using regular bias voltage scans performed at the beginning and end of each data taking campaign the evolution of the pixel cluster charge and bulk depletion is studied as a function of particle fluence. Results are interpreted with the modelling provided by standalone TCAD and ATLAS Monte Carlo simulation including radiation damage effects.

Prompt identification of these issues permits fast action to investigate, correct and potentially prevent future such problems that could render the data unusable. This is achieved through the monitoring of detector-level quantities and reconstructed collision event characteristics at key stages of the data processing chain.

This Colloquium considers quantum effects associated with skyrmion textures: their theoretical origins, the experimental and material challenges associated with their detection, and the promise of exploiting them for quantum operations. Starting with classical skyrmions, this Colloquium discusses their magnon and electron excitations and shows how hybrid architectures offer new platforms for engineering quantum orders, including topological superconductivity.

Dual-energy CT (DECT) has the ability to estimate RSP more accurately than conventional single-energy CT (SECT) due to its improved material separation. RSP accuracy is commonly determined in homogeneous phantom material as it can be more challenging to determine in heterogeneous biological tissues. Proton CT (pCT) is a modality that directly determines RSP and can be used as a comparative benchmark for evaluating the RSP accuracy of DECT and SECT derived values across homogeneous and heterogeneous material. PURPOSE: In this study, DECT was compared to SECT in both homogeneous phantom inserts of known RSP and heterogeneous tissue samples of unknown RSP using pCT as a quantitative reference. The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of DECT to improve RSP estimation over SECT in unknown RSP of heterogeneous tissues.

This analysis uses dijets as a proxy for the parton–parton scattering configuration, correlating it with event geometry estimators, namely the energy deposited in the Zero-Degree Calorimeter and the transverse energy recorded in the Forward Calorimeter in the Pb-going direction. The analysis uses data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider with a nucleon–nucleon center-of-mass energy of 8.16 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 56 nb − 1 .

The result is used to place constraints on exotic decays of the Higgs boson into four τ-leptons, H→aa→τ+τ−τ+τ−.

No significant excess is observed above the expected Standard Model background and upper limits at the 95% confidence level on B(H→aa→τ+τ−τ+τ−) are set ranging from 0.06 to 0.23, depending on the mass ma ranging from 15 to 60 GeV. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7mh4f656 Wed, 19 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Collaboration, The ATLAS https://escholarship.org/uc/item/63667427 A model-independent search for low-mass resonances decaying into pairs of oppositely charged muons is presented. The analysis uses proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1, recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider between 2015 and 2018. The search targets hypothetical dimuon resonances in the invariant mass range from 35 GeV to 75 GeV. The modelling of this mass region is particularly challenging for conventional analytic background parameterisations. To address this, a Gaussian process regression technique is used to model the background. The dimuon mass spectrum is analysed for potential signals, and no statistically significant excess is observed. Upper limits at the 95% confidence level are set on the fiducial production cross-section of new resonances decaying promptly into muons, ranging from 20 fb to 110 fb, depending on the resonance mass.

Contributing analyses include measurements of vector-boson scattering in numerous final states as well as a tri-boson measurement. The combined measurement is used to constrain anomalous electroweak boson quartic self-couplings that result from dimension-8 operators in the Éboli model using an effective field theory. Results are presented as 68% and 95% confidence level intervals parameterised by one or two Wilson coefficients, both with and without unitarity constraints applied. Theoretical bounds from unitarity and positivity are overlaid where relevant.

The proton–proton collision dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 308 fb − 1 , consisting of two samples, 140 fb − 1 at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 13 TeV and 168 fb − 1 at s = 13.6 TeV , recorded between 2015 and 2024 by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider.

They are extracted using two complementary methods: two-particle correlations with a template-fit subtraction of short-range nonflow contributions, and four-particle subevent cumulants, which intrinsically suppress nonflow effects and provide sensitivity to flow fluctuations. The results show a clear hierarchy and a nonmonotonic dependence on , reaching a maximum around , consistent with trends observed in heavy-ion collisions.

The measurement is performed in the single-lepton decay channel using proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb − 1 recorded during Run 2 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The t t ¯ γ γ production cross section, measured in a fiducial phase space based on particle-level kinematic criteria for the lepton, photons, and jets, is found to be 2 . 42 − 0.53 + 0.58 fb , corresponding to an observed significance of 5.2 standard deviations. Additionally, the ratio of the production cross section of t t ¯ γ γ to top-quark pair production in association with one photon is determined, yielding ( 3 . 30 − 0.65 + 0.70 ) × 10 − 3 . https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2th9b7zj Fri, 26 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Aakvaag, E Abbott, B Abdelhameed, S Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboelela, M Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abulaiti, Y Acharya, BS Ackermann, A Bourdarios, C Adam Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmadov, F Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Tamlihat, M Ait Aitbenchikh, B Akbiyik, M åkesson, T PA Akimov, AV Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Alberghi, GL Albert, J Alberti, U Albicocco, P Albouy, GL Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, H MJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Alkakhi, W Allaire, C Allbrooke, B MM Allen, JS Allen, JF Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alsolami, Z MK Fernandez, A Alvarez Cardoso, M Alves Alviggi, MG Aly, M Coutinho, Y Amaral Ambler, A Amelung, C Amerl, M Ames, CG Amezza, T Amidei, D Amini, B Amirie, K Amirkhanov, A Dos Santos, SP Amor Amos, KR Amperiadou, D An, S Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Anderson, AC Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F Aoki, M https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8w4266cj The ATLAS experiment has performed a measurement of coherent exclusive J/ψ → μ+μ− production in ultraperipheral Pb+Pb collisions at sNN=5.36$$ \sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}}=5.36 $$ TeV. The data was recorded at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) during 2023, and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 79 μb−1. Exclusive J/ψ candidates were selected with a dedicated track-sensitive trigger based on the ATLAS transition radiation tracker. The analysis involves reconstruction of the dimuon invariant mass based on muon tracks from the inner detector, as the muon transverse momentum range of interest precludes the use of the standard muon reconstruction and identification algorithms. Differential cross sections are measured as a function of J/ψ rapidity and are compared with theoretical predictions. After extrapolation to sNN=5.02$$ \sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}}=5.02 $$ TeV, they are also compared with previous measurements performed by other experiments using data from LHC Run 2.

Such a final state might occur in gauge-mediated supersymmetric models where a pair of binos and higgsinos mix to form neutralinos, one of which decays into a photon plus a gravitino while the other decays into a Higgs boson, a Z boson or a photon, plus a gravitino.

The data sample was recorded with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s=13$$ \sqrt{s}=13 $$ TeV during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb−1. The measurement is based on the invariant mass m(ℓμ+μ−) of the system made of the isolated lepton ℓ from the W boson decay and the non-isolated μ+μ− pair from a J/ψ decay of a b-hadron, exploiting its sensitivity to the top-quark mass. An unbinned maximum-likelihood fit to the m(ℓμ+μ−) distribution is performed to extract the top-quark mass. The top-quark mass is measured to be mtop = 172.17 ± 0.80 (stat) ± 0.81 (syst) ± 1.07 (recoil) GeV, with a total uncertainty of 1.56 GeV. The third uncertainty arises from changing the dipole parton shower gluon-recoil scheme used in top-quark decays. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/17f8n6j3 Thu, 25 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Aakvaag, E Abbott, B Abdelhameed, S Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboelela, M Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abulaiti, Y Acharya, BS Ackermann, A Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmadov, F Ahuja, S Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Ait Tamlihat, M Aitbenchikh, B Akbiyik, M Åkesson, TPA Akimov, AV Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Alberghi, GL Albert, J Alberti, U Albicocco, P Albouy, GL Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Alexa, C Aleksandrov, IN Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Alkakhi, W Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, DR Allen, JS Allen, JF Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alsolami, ZMK Alvarez Fernandez, A Alves Cardoso, M Alviggi, MG Aly, M Ambler, A Amelung, C Amerl, M Ames, CG Amezza, T Amidei, D Amini, B Amirie, K Amirkhanov, A Amor Dos Santos, SP Amos, KR Amperiadou, D An, S Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Anderson, AC Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3vk5f9nd One correction is noted for the paper.

This overview presents the underlying ideas and the resulting equations in a form accessible to nonexperts. We compare theoretical results with all available resistivity data for single-layer High-T$_{c}$ systems, and with some spectral data. The highlighted results include a density dependent quasilinear T-dependence in resistivity, an unusually small quasiparticle weight, and distinct low-temperature emergent scales that dominate transport, thermodynamics and spectral properties of single-layer High T$_c$ systems.

In this work, we report a curvilinear magnonic crystal based on large-area square arrays of truncated nanospikes fabricated by conformal coating of 3D hierarchical templates with permalloy thin films. Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy reveals an anisotropic band structure with multiple dispersive and folded Bloch-type dispersive spin-wave modes as well as nondispersive modes exhibiting direction-dependent frequency shifts and intensity asymmetries along lattice principal axes. Finite element micromagnetic simulations indicate that curvature-induced variations of the demagnetizing field govern the magnonic response, enabling the identification of modes propagating in nanochannels and others localized on nanospike apexes or along the ridges connecting adjacent nanospikes. The combination of geometric... https://escholarship.org/uc/item/37j3j90d Tue, 17 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Gubbiotti, Gianluca Bezsmertna, Olha Pylypovskyi, Oleksandr V Xu, Rui Chiroli, Stéphane Zighem, Fatih González, Claudia Fernández Sorrentino, Andrea Raftrey, David Wolf, Daniel Lubk, Axel Fischer, Peter https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9824-9343 Faurie, Damien Makarov, Denys https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0vf4n9pm The top-quark Yukawa coupling is extracted from the distribution of the top-quark pair (tt¯$$ t\overline{t} $$) invariant mass in proton-proton collisions using 140 fb−1 of data at s=13$$ \sqrt{s}=13 $$ TeV collected in 2015–2018 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. In the region near the production threshold, the tt¯$$ t\overline{t} $$ invariant mass spectrum is sensitive to electroweak virtual corrections, including contributions from Higgs boson exchange, thereby providing sensitivity to the top-quark Yukawa coupling. This is the first measurement in ATLAS that aims to obtain this coupling exploiting this approach. The tt¯$$ t\overline{t} $$ system is reconstructed in the single-lepton final state, requiring exactly one isolated electron or muon and at least four jets with at least two identified as originating from b-quarks. The measured Yukawa coupling is found to be in good agreement with the Standard Model prediction. An upper limit on the top-quark Yukawa... https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0vf4n9pm Tue, 10 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Aad, G Aakvaag, E Abbott, B Abdelhameed, S Abeling, K Abicht, NJ Abidi, SH Aboelela, M Aboulhorma, A Abramowicz, H Abulaiti, Y Acharya, BS Ackermann, A Adam Bourdarios, C Adamczyk, L Addepalli, SV Addison, MJ Adelman, J Adiguzel, A Adye, T Affolder, AA https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9058-7217 Afik, Y Agaras, MN Aggarwal, A Agheorghiesei, C Ahmadov, F Ahuja, S Ahuja, S Ai, X Aielli, G Aikot, A Ait Tamlihat, M Aitbenchikh, B Åkesson, TPA Akimov, AV Akiyama, D Akolkar, NN Aktas, S Alberghi, GL Albert, J Alberti, U Albicocco, P Albouy, GL Alderweireldt, S Alegria, ZL Aleksa, M Aleksandrov, IN Alexa, C Alexopoulos, T Alfonsi, F Algren, M Alhroob, M Ali, B Ali, HMJ Ali, S Alibocus, SW Aliev, M Alimonti, G Alkakhi, W Allaire, C Allbrooke, BMM Allen, DR Allen, JS Allen, JF Allport, PP Aloisio, A Alonso, F Alpigiani, C Alsolami, ZMK Alvarez Fernandez, A Alves Cardoso, M Alviggi, MG Aly, M Amaral Coutinho, Y Ambler, A Amelung, C Amerl, M Ames, CG Amezza, T Amidei, D Amini, B Amirie, K Amirkhanov, A Amor Dos Santos, SP Amos, KR Amperiadou, D An, S Anastopoulos, C Andeen, T Anders, JK Anderson, AC Andreazza, A Angelidakis, S Angerami, A Anisenkov, AV Annovi, A Antel, C Antipov, E Antonelli, M Anulli, F
