Ameasurement of fiducial and differential crosssections
for W+W− production in proton–proton collisions
at
√
s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large
Hadron Collider using data corresponding to an integrated
luminosity of 36.1 fb−1 is presented. Events with one electron
and one muon are selected, corresponding to the decay
of the diboson system asWW → e±
νμ
∓
ν. To suppress topquark
background, events containing jets with a transverse
momentum exceeding 35 GeV are not included in the measurement
phase space. The fiducial cross-section, six differential
distributions and the cross-section as a function of the
jet-veto transverse momentum threshold are measured and
compared with several theoretical predictions. Constraints
on anomalous electroweak gauge boson self-interactions are
also presented in the framework of a dimension-six effective
field theory.
