Measurements of W and Z boson production in pp collisions at s√=5.02 TeV with the ATLAS detectors

Measurements of fiducial integrated and differential cross sections for inclusive W+W+W^+, W−W−W^- and Z boson production are reported. They are based on 25.0±0.5pb−125.0±0.5pb−125.0 \pm 0.5\; \mathrm {pb}^{-1} of pp collision data at s√=5.02s=5.02\sqrt{s} = 5.02 TeV collected with the ATLAS detecto...

Description
Summary:Measurements of fiducial integrated and differential cross sections for inclusive W+W+W^+, W−W−W^- and Z boson production are reported. They are based on 25.0±0.5pb−125.0±0.5pb−125.0 \pm 0.5\; \mathrm {pb}^{-1} of pp collision data at s√=5.02s=5.02\sqrt{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+W^+, W−W−W^- and Z integrated cross sections are found to be σW+=2266±9 (stat)±29 (syst)±43 (lumi)σW+=2266±9 (stat)±29 (syst)±43 (lumi)\sigma _{W^+}= 2266 \pm 9~\text {(stat)} \pm 29~\text {(syst)} \pm 43~\text {(lumi)} pb, σW−=1401±7 (stat)±18 (syst)±27 (lumi)σW−=1401±7 (stat)±18 (syst)±27 (lumi)\sigma _{W^-}= 1401 \pm 7~\text {(stat)} \pm 18~\text {(syst)} \pm 27~\text {(lumi)} pb, and σZ=374.5±3.4 (stat)±3.6 (syst)±7.0 (lumi)σZ=374.5±3.4 (stat)±3.6 (syst)±7.0 (lumi)\sigma _Z= 374.5 \pm 3.4~\text {(stat)} \pm 3.6~\text {(syst)} \pm 7.0~\text {(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−−−√=5.02sNN=5.02\sqrt{s_{\mathrm {NN}}}=5.02 TeV.
