Title: | Measurements of W and Z boson production in pp collisions at √s=5.02 TeV with the ATLAS detector | Authors: | Santos, S. P. Amor dos Fiolhais, M. C. N. Galhardo, B. Veloso, F. Wolters, H. ATLAS Collaboration |
Issue Date: | 2019 | Publisher: | Springer Nature | Serial title, monograph or event: | European Physical Journal C | Volume: | 79 | Issue: | 2 | Abstract: | Measurements of fiducial integrated and differential cross sections for inclusive W+, W- and Z boson production are reported. They are based on 25.0±0.5pb-1 of pp collision data at s=5.02 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Electron and muon decay channels are analysed, and the combined W+, W- and Z integrated cross sections are found to be σW+=2266±9(stat)±29(syst)±43(lumi) pb, σW-=1401±7(stat)±18(syst)±27(lumi) pb, and σZ=374.5±3.4(stat)±3.6(syst)±7.0(lumi) pb, in good agreement with next-to-next-to-leading-order QCD cross-section calculations. These measurements serve as references for Pb+Pb interactions at the LHC at sNN=5.02 TeV. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/106906 | DOI: | 10.1140/epjc/s10052-019-6622-x | Rights: | openAccess |
