Erratum to: Search for production of WW / WZ resonances decaying to a lepton, neutrino and jets in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

It has been found that the bulk RS graviton (G*)(G*) exclusion limits were erroneously expressed as a function of σ(pp→G*)×BR(G*→WW)σ(pp→G*)×BR(G*→WW) . The corrected version of the top plot in Fig. 2 of the paper is presented below. With this correction, resonance masses below 760 GeV are excluded at 95 % confidence level for this model.

Reconstruction of hadronic decay products of tau leptons with the ATLAS experiment

This document presents a new method of reconstructing the individual charged and neutral hadrons in tau decays with the ATLAS detector. The reconstructed hadrons are used to classify the decay mode and to calculate the visible four-momentum of reconstructed tau candidates, significantly improving the resolution with respect to the calibration in the existing tau reconstruction. The performance of the reconstruction algorithm is optimised and evaluated using simulation and validated using samples of Z → ττ and Z(→ μμ)+jets events selected from proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy √s = 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 fb -1 .

Search for gluinos in events with an isolated lepton, jets and missing transverse momentum at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 Te V with the ATLAS detector

The results of a search for gluinos in final states with an isolated electron or muon, multiple jets and large missing transverse momentum using proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 Te V are presented. The dataset used was recorded in 2015 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb -1 . Six signal selections are defined that best exploit the signal characteristics. The data agree with the Standard Model background expectation in all six signal selections, and the largest deviation is a 2.1 standard deviation excess. The results are interpreted in a simplified model where pair-produced gluinos decay via the lightest chargino to the lightest neutralino. In this model, gluinos are excluded up to masses of approximately 1.6 Te V depending on the mass spectrum of the simplified model, thus surpassing the limits of previous searches.

Search for a new heavy gauge-boson resonance decaying into a lepton and missing transverse momentum in 36 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV with the ATLAS experiment

The results of a search for new heavy W ' bosons decaying to an electron or muon and a neutrino using proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 13 TeV are presented. The dataset was collected in 2015 and 2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb –1 . As no excess of events above the Standard Model prediction is observed, the results are used to set upper limits on the W ' boson cross-section times branching ratio to an electron or muon and a neutrino as a function of the W ' mass. Here, assuming a W ' boson with the same couplings as the Standard Model W boson, W ' masses below 5.1 TeV are excluded at the 95% confidence level.
