Evidence for the production of three massive vector bosons with the ATLAS detector Aad, G. Aguilar Saavedra, Juan Antonio Atlas Collaboration A search for the production of three massive vector bosons in proton–proton collisions is performed using data at root s = 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in the years 2015–2017, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79.8 fb−1. Events with two same-sign leptons ℓ (electrons or muons) and at least two reconstructed jets are selected to search for WWW -> lvlvqq. Events with three leptons without any same-flavour opposite-sign lepton pairs are used to search for WWW -> lvlvlv, while events with three leptons and at least one same-flavour opposite-sign lepton pair and one or more reconstructed jets are used to search for WWZ -> lvqqll. Finally, events with four leptons are analysed to search for WWZ -> lvlvll and WZZ -> qqllll. Evidence for the joint production of three massive vector bosons is observed with a significance of 4.1 standard deviations, where the expectation is 3.1 standard deviations. 2019-12-05T10:47:42Z 2019-12-05T10:47:42Z 2019-09-10 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Lei, K., Ng, T.
