Abstract: The jet energy scale, jet energy resolution, and their systematic uncertainties are measured for jets reconstructed with the ATLAS detector in 2012 using proton–proton data produced at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV with an integrated luminosity of $$20 \\, \\hbox {fb}^{-1}$$ 20 fb - 1 . Jets are reconstructed from clusters of energy depositions in the ATLAS calorimeters using the anti- $$k_t$$ k t algorithm. A jet calibration scheme is applied in multiple steps, each addressing specific effects including mitigation of contributions from additional proton–proton collisions, loss of energy in dead material, calorimeter non-compensation, angular biases and other global jet effects. The final calibration step uses several in situ techniques and corrects for residual effects not captured by the initial calibration. These analyses measure both the jet energy scale and resolution by exploiting the transverse momentum balance in $$\\gamma $$ γ + jet, Z + jet, dijet, and multijet events. A statistical combination of these measurements is performed. In the central detector region, the derived calibration has a precision better than 1% for jets with transverse momentum $$150 \\, \\hbox {GeV} p_{{\\mathrm {T}}} $$ 150 GeV p T 1500 GeV, and the relative energy resolution is $$(8.4\\pm 0.6)\\%$$ ( 8.4 ± 0.6 ) % for $$p_{{\\mathrm {T}}}= 100 \\, \\hbox {GeV}$$ p T = 100 GeV and $$(23\\pm 2)\\%$$ ( 23 ± 2 ) % for $$p_{{\\mathrm {T}}}= 20 \\, \\hbox {GeV}$$ p T = 20 GeV . The calibration scheme for jets with radius parameter $$R=1.0$$ R = 1.0 , for which jets receive a dedicated calibration of the jet mass, is also discussed.

Abstract: A search for a chargino-neutralino pair decaying via the 125 GeV Higgs boson into photons is presented. The study is based on the data collected between 2015 and 2018 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb − 1 of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. No significant excess over the expected background is observed. Upper limits at 95% confidence level for a massless $$ {\\tilde{\\chi}}_1^0 $$ χ ˜ 1 0 are set on several electroweakino production cross-sections and the visible cross-section for beyond the Standard Model processes. In the context of simplified supersymmetric models, 95% confidence-level limits of up to 310 GeV in $$ m\\left({\\tilde{\\chi}}_1^{\\pm }/{\\tilde{\\chi}}_2^0\\right) $$ m χ ˜ 1 ± / χ ˜ 2 0 , where $$ m\\left({\\tilde{\\chi}}_1^0\\right) $$ m χ ˜ 1 0 = 0 . 5 GeV, are set. Limits at 95% confidence level are also set on the $$ {\\tilde{\\chi}}_1^{\\pm }{\\tilde{\\chi}}_2^0 $$ χ ˜ 1 ± χ ˜ 2 0 cross-section in the mass plane of $$ m\\left({\\tilde{\\chi}}_1^{\\pm }/{\\tilde{\\chi}}_2^0\\right) $$ m χ ˜ 1 ± / χ ˜ 2 0 and $$ m\\left({\\tilde{\\chi}}_1^0\\right) $$ m χ ˜ 1 0 , and on scenarios with gravitino as the lightest supersymmetric particle. Upper limits at the 95% confidence-level are set on the higgsino production cross-section. Higgsino masses below 380 GeV are excluded for the case of the higgsino fully decaying into a Higgs boson and a gravitino.

Abstract: A measurement of observables sensitive to spin correlations in $$t\\bar{t}$$ t t ¯ production is presented, using 36.1 $$\\hbox {fb}^{-1}$$ fb - 1 of pp collision data at $$\\sqrt{s} = 13$$ s = 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Differential cross-sections are measured in events with exactly one electron and one muon with opposite-sign electric charge as a function of the azimuthal opening angle and the absolute difference in pseudorapidity between the electron and muon candidates in the laboratory frame. The azimuthal opening angle is also measured as a function of the invariant mass of the $$t\\bar{t}$$ t t ¯ system. The measured differential cross-sections are compared to predictions by several NLO Monte Carlo generators and fixed-order calculations. The observed degree of spin correlation is somewhat higher than predicted by the generators used. The data are consistent with the prediction of one of the fixed-order calculations at NLO, but agree less well with higher-order predictions. Using these leptonic observables, a search is performed for pair production of supersymmetric top squarks decaying into Standard Model top quarks and light neutralinos. Top squark masses between 170 and 230 GeV are largely excluded at the 95% confidence level for kinematically allowed values of the neutralino mass.

Abstract: This paper presents studies of Bose–Einstein correlations (BEC) in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, using data from the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Data were collected in a special low-luminosity configuration with a minimum-bias trigger and a high-multiplicity track trigger, accumulating integrated luminosities of 151 $$\upmu $$ μ b $$^{-1}$$ - 1 and 8.4 nb $$^{-1}$$ - 1 , respectively. The BEC are measured for pairs of like-sign charged particles, each with $$|\eta | 2.5$$ | η | 2.5 , for two kinematic ranges: the first with particle $$p_{\mathrm {T}} 100$$ p T 100 MeV and the second with particle $$p_{\mathrm {T}} 500$$ p T 500 MeV. The BEC parameters, characterizing the source radius and particle correlation strength, are investigated as functions of charged-particle multiplicity (up to 300) and average transverse momentum of the pair (up to 1.5 GeV). The double-differential dependence on charged-particle multiplicity and average transverse momentum of the pair is also studied. The BEC radius is found to be independent of the charged-particle multiplicity for high charged-particle multiplicity (above 100), confirming a previous observation at lower energy. This saturation occurs independent of the transverse momentum of the pair.
