Measurement of single top-quark production in association with a W boson in pp collisions at โ๐ =13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
The inclusive cross section for the production of a single top quark in association with a ๐ boson is measured using 140 fbโ1 of proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at โ๐ =13 TeV. Events containing two charged leptons and at least one jet identified as originating from a ๐...

| Summary: | The inclusive cross section for the production of a single top quark in association with a ๐ boson is measured using 140 fbโ1 of proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at โ๐ =13 TeV. Events containing two charged leptons and at least one jet identified as originating from a ๐-quark are selected. A multivariate discriminant is constructed to separate the ๐กโข๐ signal from the ๐กโขยฏ๐ก background. The cross section is extracted using a profile likelihood fit to the signal and control regions and it is measured to be ๐๐กโข๐ =7โข5+15โ14 pb, in good agreement with the Standard Model prediction. The measured cross section is used to extract a value for the left-handed form factor at the ๐โข๐กโข๐ vertex times the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |๐LVโก๐๐กโข๐| of 0.97 ยฑ0.10. |
