ATLAS and CMS observe deviations from the expected background in the diphoton invariant mass searches of new resonances around 750 GeV. We show that a simple realization in terms of a new pseudoscalar state can accommodate the observations.…
Searches for signatures of new physics in top anti-top events at the LHC require efficient reconstruction of top quarks with a broad range of transverse momenta. Three new reconstruction schemes are developed to deal with the large variety…
In this work we show that the proper analysis and interpretation of the experimental data on the multiplicity distributions of charged particles produced in jets measured in the ATLAS experiment at the LHC indicates their sub-Poissonian…
ATLAS observed a limit for {the cross section of di-jets resonances, which is weaker than expected for a} mass slightly below $\approx$1\TeV. In addition, CMS reported hints for the (non-resonant) pair production of di-jet resonances $X$…
We propose a new explanation for excess events observed in the search for a high-mass resonance decaying into dibosons by the ATLAS experiment. The resonance is identified as a composite spin-$0$ particle that couples to the Standard Model…
Over the past decade, a large number of jet substructure observables have been proposed in the literature, and explored at the LHC experiments. Such observables attempt to utilize the internal structure of jets in order to distinguish those…
The ATLAS collaboration (and also CMS) has recently reported an excess over Standard Model expectations for gauge boson pair production in the invariant mass region $1.8-2.2$ TeV. In the light of these results, we argue that such signal…
We describe a method to measure and subtract the incoherent component of energy flow arising from multiple interactions from jet shape/substructure observables of ultra-massive jets. The amount subtracted is a function of the jet shape…
The rare decay $H \to Z\gamma$ has been investigated by both the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, with each reporting an excess in Run~2 in 2023 characterized by $\mu = 2.2 \pm 0.7$. This anomaly was initially attributed to possible…
This Letter describes a search for narrowly resonant new physics using a machine-learning anomaly detection procedure that does not rely on a signal simulations for developing the analysis selection. Weakly supervised learning is used to…
A measurement of jet substructure variables is presented using data collected in 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC with proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV. Large-radius jets groomed with the trimming and soft-drop…
Jets of high energy collimated particles provide a rich phenomenology to study quantum chromodynamics, from first-principles tests of perturbative calculations to investigations of the emergent properties of the strongly-coupled quark-gluon…
In previous work, we identified an anomalous number of events in the LHC jets+MET searches characterized by low jet multiplicity and low-to-moderate transverse energy variables. Here, we update this analysis with results from a new ATLAS…
A significant excess of $t\bar{t}$ events near the production threshold was observed in LHC Run-2 data by the ATLAS Collaboration. It is consistent with the formation of $t\bar{t}$ quasi-bound states, which were first hypothesised almost 40…
We provide a possible explanation of a 750 GeV diphoton excess recently reported by both the ATLAS and CMS collaborations in the context of phenomenological spin-2 resonance scenarios, where the independent effective couplings of the…
We discuss non-standard interpretations of the 750 GeV diphoton excess recently reported by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations which do not involve a new, relatively broad, resonance with a mass near 750 GeV. Instead, we consider the…
The ATLAS experiment observed an excess at the $3\sigma$ level in the channel of $Z$ boson, jets and high missing transverse momentum in the full 2012 dataset at 8 TeV while searching for SUSY. The question arises whether the abundance and…
Boosted resonances is a highly probable and enthusiastic scenario in any process probing the electroweak scale. Such objects when decaying into jets can easily blend with the cornucopia of jets from hard relative light QCD states. We review…
A correct modelling of the underlying event in proton-proton collisions is important for the proper simulation of kinematic distributions of high-energy collisions. The ATLAS collaboration extended previous studies at 7 TeV with a leading…
This paper presents an overview of recent results from the ATLAS Experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, with a particular focus on those that are based on the entire Run 2 dataset of $\sqrt{s}$=13 TeV proton-proton collisions. These…
