The benchmark models considered in this search are vector leptoquarks with electric charge of 2/3e and scalar leptoquarks with an electric charge of 4/3e. No significant excess above the Standard Model prediction is observed, and 95% confidence level upper limits are set on the cross-section times branching fraction of leptoquarks decaying into bτ . For the vector leptoquark production two models are considered: the Yang-Mills and Minimal coupling models. In the Yang-Mills (Minimal coupling) scenario, vector leptoquarks with a mass below 1.58 (1.35)TeV are excluded for a gauge coupling of 1.0 and below 2.05 (1.99)TeV for a gauge coupling of 2.5. In the case of scalar leptoquarks, masses below 1.28 (1.53)TeV are excluded for a Yukawa coupling of 1.0 (2.5). Finally, an interpretation of the results with minimal model dependence is performed for each of the signal region categories, and limits on the visible cross-section for beyond the Standard Model processes are provided.}, organization = {BSF-NSF}, organization = {CEA-DRF}, organization = {Cantons of Bern and Geneva}, organization = {DNSRC IN2P3-CNRS}, organization = {EU-ESF}, organization = {GenT Programmes Generalitat Valenciana, Spain}, organization = {La Caixa Banking Foundation}, organization = {MIZŠ}, organization = {MNE}, organization = {Norwegian Financial Mechanism}, organization = {PROMETEO}, organization = {RGC}, organization = {UNCE SCI/013}, organization = {Wallenberg Foundation}, organization = {U.S. Department of Energy USDOE}, organization = {Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung AvH}, organization = {CRC Health Group CRC 21/SCI/017}, organization = {Canarie}, organization = {H2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions MSCA}, organization = {MSSRF}, organization = {CERN}, organization = {Compute Canada}, organization = {Göran Gustafssons Stiftelser}, organization = {Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada NSERC}, organization = {National Research Council Canada NRC}, organization = {Canada Foundation for Innovation CFI}, organization = {Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC}, organization = {Leverhulme Trust}, organization = {European Research Council ERC}, organization = {European Cooperation in Science and Technology COST}, organization = {Australian Research Council ARC}, organization = {National Stroke Foundation NSF}, organization = {Neurosurgical Research Foundation NRF}, organization = {Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft HGF}, organization = {Minerva Foundation}, organization = {Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG}, organization = {Agence Nationale de la Recherche ANR}, organization = {Japan Society for the Promotion of Science KAKEN}, organization = {Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology MEXT}, organization = {Schweizerischer Nationalfonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung SNF}, organization = {Danmarks Grundforskningsfond DNRF}, organization = {Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo FAPESP}, organization = {National Natural Science Foundation of China NSFC}, organization = {Ministerstvo Školství, Mládeže a Tělovýchovy MŠMT}, organization = {Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia FCT}, organization = {Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung BMBF}, organization = {Chinese Academy of Sciences CAS}, organization = {Austrian Science Fund FWF}, organization = {Generalitat de Catalunya}, organization = {Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China MOST}, organization = {Agencia Nacional de Promoción Científica y Tecnológica ANPCyT}, organization = {Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek NWO}, organization = {Bundesministerium für Wissenschaft, Forschung und Wirtschaft BMWFW}, organization = {Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico CNPq}, organization = {Nella and Leon Benoziyo Center for Neurological Diseases, Weizmann Institute of Science}, organization = {Israel Science Foundation ISF}, organization = {Instituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare INFN}, organization = {Narodowe Centrum Nauki NCN}, organization = {Javna Agencija za Raziskovalno Dejavnost RS ARRS}, organization = {Ministarstvo Prosvete, Nauke i Tehnološkog Razvoja MPNTR}, organization = {Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación MICINN}, organization = {Centre National pour la Recherche Scientifique et Technique CNRST}, organization = {Staatssekretariat für Bildung, Forschung und Innovation SBFI}, organization = {Horizon 2020}, organization = {British Columbia Knowledge Development Fund BCKDF}, organization = {European Regional Development Fund ERDF}, organization = {Defence Science Institute DSI}, organization = {Narodowa Agencja Wymiany Akademickiej NAWA}, organization = {Institutul de Fizică Atomică IFA}, organization = {Agencia Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo ANID}, organization = {Royal Society of South Australia RSSA}, organization = {IRFU}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, keywords = {Beyond Standard Model}, keywords = {Hadron-Hadron Scattering}, title = {Search for leptoquarks decaying into the bτ final state in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector}, doi = {10.1007/JHEP10(2023)001}, author = {Atlas Collaboration and Aad, G. and Rodríguez Chala, Mikael}, }
