用ATLAS探测器寻找高质量双轻子末态中新的非共振现象

Search for new non-resonant phenomena in high-mass dilepton final states with the ATLAS detector

ATLAS Collaboration

摘要:

在2 TeV以上的质量范围内的双电子和双μ子的最终状态的非共振信号的新物理的搜索。这是第一次在大型强子对撞机上使用来自数据的背景估计来搜索双轻子末态的非共振信号。这些数据对应于139 fb $^{-1}$的积分亮度,是在大型强子对撞机运行2期间,在质量中心能量为$\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV的质子-质子碰撞中由ATLAS实验记录的。基准信号签名是一个两夸克和两轻子接触相互作用,这将提高双轻子事件率在TeV的质量尺度。为了模拟来自背景过程的贡献,一个函数形式适合于在感兴趣的区域下面的质量区域中的数据中的双轻子不变量质谱。然后将其外推到高质量信号区域,以获得那里的预期背景。在数据中未观察到与预期背景的显著偏离。在95%CL的事件和可见的横截面倍分支分数的过程中,涉及新的物理的上限。接触相互作用能量标度上观察到的(预期)95% CL下限达到35.8(37.6)TeV。

英文摘要:

A search for new physics with non-resonant signals in dielectron and dimuon final states in the mass range above 2 TeV is presented. This is the first search for non-resonant signals in dilepton final states at the LHC to use a background estimate from the data. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{-1}$, were recorded by the ATLAS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. The benchmark signal signature is a two-quark and two-lepton contact interaction, which would enhance the dilepton event rate at the TeV mass scale. To model the contribution from background processes a functional form is fit to the dilepton invariant-mass spectra in data in a mass region below the region of interest. It is then extrapolated to a high-mass signal region to obtain the expected background there. No significant deviation from the expected background is observed in the data. Upper limits at 95 % CL on the number of events and the visible cross-section times branching fraction for processes involving new physics are provided. Observed (expected) 95 % CL lower limits on the contact interaction energy scale reach 35.8 (37.6) TeV.
