  • pp -> WZ + X, diboson decays to electrons and muons

The production of $W^\pm Z$ events in proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is measured with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The collected data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb${}^{-1}$ . The $W^\pm Z$ candidates are reconstructed using leptonic decays of the gauge bosons into electrons or muons. The measured inclusive cross section in the detector fiducial region for leptonic decay modes is $\sigma(W^\pm Z\to\ell^\prime\nu\ell\ell \text{fid.}) = 63.2\pm 3.2$(stat.)$\pm 2.6$(sys.)$\pm 1.5$(lumi.) fb. In comparison, the next-to-leading-order Standard Model prediction is 53.4-2.8+3.6 fb. The extrapolation of the measurement from the fiducial to the total phase space yields $\sigma(W^\pm Z\text{tot.})=50.6\pm 2.6$(stat.)$\pm 2.0$(sys.)$\pm 0.9$(th.)$\pm 1.2$(lumi.) pb, in agreement with a recent next-to-next-to-leading-order calculation of 48.2-1.0+1.1 pb. The cross section as a function of jet multiplicity is also measured, together with the charge-dependent $W^+Z$ and $W^-Z$ cross sections and their ratio. Uses SM neutrino-lepton flavour matching and a resonant shape algorithm assuming the Standard Model, to match the MC-based correction to the fiducial region applied in the paper. This routine is therefore only valid under the assumption of the Standard Model and cannot be used for BSM reinterpretation.
