@misc{10481/72383, year = {2021}, month = {11}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10481/72383}, abstract = {A measurement of four-top-quark production using proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 is presented. Events are selected if they contain a single lepton (electron or muon) or an opposite-sign lepton pair, in association with multiple jets. The events are categorised according to the number of jets and how likely these are to contain b-hadrons. A multivariate technique is then used to discriminate between signal and background events. The measured four-top-quark production cross section is found to be 26−15+17 fb, with a corresponding observed (expected) significance of 1.9 (1.0) standard deviations over the background-only hypothesis. The result is combined with the previous measurement performed by the ATLAS Collaboration in the multilepton final state. The combined four-top-quark production cross section is measured to be 24−6+7 fb, with a corresponding observed (expected) signal significance of 4.7 (2.6) standard deviations over the background-only predictions. It is consistent within 2.0 standard deviations with the Standard Model expectation of 12.0 ± 2.4 fb.}, organization = {ANPCyT, Argentina}, organization = {YerPhI, Armenia}, organization = {ARC, Australia}, organization = {BMWFW y FWF, Austria}, organization = {ANAS, Azerbaiyán}, organization = {SSTC, Bielorrusia}, organization = {CNPq y FAPESP, Brasil}, organization = {NSERC, NRC y CFI, Canadá}, organization = {CERN; ANID, Chile}, organization = {CAS, MOST y NSFC, China}, organization = {Minciencias, Colombia}, organization = {MSMT CR, MPO CR y VSC CR, República Checa}, organization = {DNRF y DNSRC, Dinamarca}, organization = {IN2P3-CNRS y CEA-DRF/IRFU, Francia}, organization = {SRNSFG, Georgia}, organization = {BMBF, HGF y MPG, Alemania}, organization = {GSRI, Grecia}, organization = {RGC y la RAE de Hong Kong, China}, organization = {ISF y Benoziyo Center, Israel}, organization = {INFN, Italia}, organization = {MEXT y JSPS, Japón}, organization = {CNRST, Marruecos}, organization = {NWO, Países Bajos}, organization = {RCN, Noruega}, organization = {MNiSW y NCN, Polonia}, organization = {FCT, Portugal}, organization = {MNE/IFA, Rumania}, organization = {JINR}, organization = {MES de Rusia y NRC KI, Federación de Rusia}, organization = {MESTD, Serbia}, organization = {MSSR, Eslovaquia}, organization = {ARRS y MIZŠ, Eslovenia}, organization = {DSI/NRF, Sudáfrica}, organization = {MICINN, España}, organization = {SRC y Fundación Wallenberg, Suecia}, organization = {SERI, SNSF y cantones de Berna y Ginebra, Suiza}, organization = {MOST, Taiwán}, organization = {TAEK, Turquía}, organization = {STFC, Reino Unido}, organization = {DOE y NSF, Estados Unidos de América}, organization = {BCKDF, CANARIE, Compute Canada y CRC, Canadá}, organization = {Inversiones d'Avenir Labex, Investissements d'Avenir Idex y ANR, Francia}, organization = {DFG y AvH Foundation, Alemania}, organization = {Programas Herakleitos, Thales y Aristeia cofinanciados por la UE-FSE y el NSRF griego, Grecia;}, organization = {BSF-NSF y GIF, Israel}, organization = {Mecanismo Financiero de Noruega 2014-2021, Noruega}, organization = {Fundación Bancaria La Caixa, PROGRAMA CERCA Generalitat de Catalunya y los Programas PROMETEO y GenT de la Generalitat Valenciana, España}, organization = {COSTE, ERC, FEDER, Acciones Horizonte 2020 y Marie Skłodowska-Curie, Unión Europea}, organization = {Göran Gustafssons Stiftelse, Suecia}, organization = {The Royal Society y Leverhulme Trust, Reino Unido}, publisher = {Springer}, keywords = {Hadron-Hadron scattering (experiments)}, keywords = {Top physics}, title = {Measurement of the tt¯tt¯ production cross section in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector}, doi = {10.1007/JHEP11(2021)118}, author = {Atlas Collaboration and Aguilar Saavedra, Juan Antonio and Rodríguez Chala, Mikael}, }
