The data analysis uses 36.1 fb\(^{-1}\) of \({pp}\) collisions at \(\sqrt{s}=13\) recorded by the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The data are found to be consistent with the expected Standard Model background. The observed (expected — assuming Standard Model \({pp} → H → {Z}γ\) production and decay) upper limit on the production cross section times the branching ratio for \({pp} → H → {Z}γ\) is 6.6. (5.2) times the Standard Model prediction at the 95\% confidence level for a Higgs boson mass of 125.09 GeV. In addition, upper limits are set on the production cross section times the branching ratio as a function of the mass of a narrow resonance between 250 GeV and 2.4 TeV, assuming spin-0 resonances produced via gluon-gluon fusion, and spin-2 resonances produced via gluon-gluon or quark-antiquark initial states. For high-mass spin-0 resonances, the observed (expected) limits vary between 88 fb (61 fb) and 2.8 fb (2.7 fb) for the mass range from 250 GeV to 2.4 TeV at the 95\% confidence level.},

For a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV, an excess of events over the expected background from other Standard Model processes is found with an observed significance of 3.5 standard deviations, compared to an expectation of 3.0 standard deviations. This excess provides evidence for the Higgs boson decay into b-quarks and for its production in association with a vector boson. The combination of this result with that of the Run 1 analysis yields a ratio of the measured signal events to the Standard Model expectation equal to 0.90 ± 0.18(stat.)\(^{+0.21}_{-0.19}\)(syst.).

The proton-proton collision data set analysed amounts to 36.1 fb\(^{-1}\) at \(\sqrt{s} = 13\) TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Top quark pair events are searched for, where one top quark decays into \(qH\) and the other decays into \(bW\). Both the hadronic and leptonic decay modes of the \(W\) boson are used. No significant excess is observed and an upper limit is set on the \({t → cH}\) branching ratio of 2.2 × 10\(^{-3}\) at the 95\% confidence level, while the expected limit in the absence of signal is 1.6 × 10\(^{-3}\). The corresponding limit on the \(tcH\) coupling is 0.090 at the 95\% confidence level. The observed upper limit on the \({t → uH}\) branching ratio is 2.4 × 10\(^{-3}\).},

  abstract  = {A search for pair production of a scalar partner of the top quark in events with four or more jets plus missing transverse momentum is presented. An analysis of 36.1 fb\(^{-1}\) of \(\sqrt{s}\) = 13 TeV proton-proton collisions collected using the ATLAS detector at the LHC yields no significant excess over the expected Standard Model background. To interpret the results a simplified supersymmetric model is used where the top squark is assumed to decay via \(\tilde{t}_1\) → \(t^{(∗)}\)\(\tilde{χ}^0_1\) and \(\tilde{t}_1\) → \(b\tilde{χ}^±_1\) → \({bW}^{(∗)}\tilde{χ}^0_1\), where \(\tilde{χ}^0_1\) (\(\tilde{χ}^±_1\)) denotes the lightest neutralino (chargino). Exclusion limits are placed in terms of the top-squark and neutralino masses. Assuming a branching ratio of 100\% to \(t\tilde{χ}^0_1\), top-squark masses in the range 450-1000 GeV are excluded for \(\tilde{χ}^0_1\) masses below 160 GeV. In the case where \(m_{\tilde{t}_1}\) ∼ \(m_t\) + \(m_{\tilde{χ}^0_1}\), top-squark masses in the range 235-590 GeV are excluded.},
